I Wake Up Screaming

I wake up screaming I wake up screaming I should be dreaming But I wake up screaming I've been convicted of a crime that I could never commit The only thing I'm guilty in my mind is of a tendency to exist (So why) Why am I the POI? I wish I had an alibi (So why) I'm the one that should be grieving So why do I wake up screaming I wake up screaming When I should be dreaming I wake up screaming On the run from more than myself, this time it's not funny Compromising pictures on the shelf, my clothes tattered and bloody (Tonight) I'm the one virtuous man Living in this wasteland (Tonight) Tomorrow is the legal proceeding But tonight I wake up screaming I wake up screaming (So why) Why am I the POI? I wish I had an alibi (So why) I'm the one who should be grieving So why I wake up screaming I wake up screaming I should be dreaming But I wake up screaming I wake up screaming
