Alys
Didn't you know
Your story wasn't made to be this cruel
Alys
Didn't you know
It only served those who wanted to rule
That night you looked up to the stars and the moon
Alone in your bedroom, dreaming of better moods
They all turned their back on you
Why didn't you scream
When they filled your mouth with pills and killed your dreams
Why didn't you scream
When they strapped you on that chair and split your head in two
Why didn't you scream
Well you couldn't
You couldn't scream no more
Alys
Couldn't you smell
That stench of steel and ether all around
Alys
Locked in your cell
The weight of your fear had cuffed you to the ground
You couldn't look up to the stars and the moon
Alone in your bedroom of chemical moods
Oh they all turned their back on you
Why didn't you scream
When they filled your mouth with pills and killed your dreams
Why didn't you scream
When they strapped you on that chair and split your head in two
Why didn't you scream
Well you couldn't
You couldn't scream no more
No more
Oh do you remember the Hollywood sign
Or, even better, London by night
Do you remember, do you remember, do you remember
Do you remember, do you remember, you don't remember
You couldn't scream
When they filled your mouth with pills and killed your dreams
You couldn't scream
When they strapped you on that chair
You couldn't scream
