Don't Make Me Shout
Echoes of Unheard Pain: The Fifth House's Plea for Understanding
Lyrics
You put on your favorite record
You engage in an activity, playing your favorite record.
All I heard was the vinyl crackling
The sound of the vinyl crackling is all that's audible to me.
Fed up so I crawled to the top of a hill
Feeling frustrated, I climb a hill for perspective.
Shed a tear I feel the wind of the world on my back
Emotionally moved, I shed a tear, sensing the weight of the world.
It's the only place I can keep my sanity
The hill is the only place offering mental clarity.
But still I need you to hear me out
Despite this, I still need you to listen to what I have to say.
Can you hear me
Asking if you can hear me.
Are you listening
Checking if you are actively listening.
Don't make me shout
Requesting not to force me into raising my voice.
Don't make me shout
Reiteration of the plea not to make me shout.
Don't make me shout
Further emphasis on the request not to shout.
Ooo
An interjection expressing emotion or emphasis.
Line up take a picture
Suggesting a social scenario where a photo is taken.
Say I'm in it but the lens is pointed at yourself
Highlighting self-centered behavior during the photo session.
Stay at my house past midnight
Guests overstay, but communication with me remains silent.
Never quiet but to me you never say a word
You are talkative with others but silent with me.
It's supposed to be the place for my privacy
The place is meant for privacy, but my secrets are revealed.
Found my secrets now they're pouring out
Discovery of my secrets, leading to their disclosure.
Can you hear me
Reiterating the question if you can hear me.
I know you're listening
Acknowledging that you are listening.
Don't make me shout
Repeating the plea not to make me shout.
Don't make me shout
Emphasizing the request to avoid shouting.
Don't make me shout
Reiteration of the plea not to make me shout.
Ooo
An interjection expressing emotion or emphasis.
I know you're in there
Repeated requests to be let in and not provoke shouting.
I know you're in there
-I know you're in there
-I know you're in there
-I know you're in there
-So let me in there
-I know you're in there
-So let me in there
-I know you're in there
-So let me in there
-I know you're in there
-So let me in there
-I know you're in there
-So let me in there
-Don't make me shout
-Don't make me shout
-Don't make me shout
-Ooo
A concluding interjection expressing emotion or emphasis.
