Scream
Bill: Wakes up and somebody is there yelling at him. He walks down the street, it's barely morning. He enters an old building through a half-boarded up door. There is a blur of faces all around him. He spins in a full circle before raising his hands to his face.
You get up
And somebody tells you
Where to go
When you get there
Everybody's telling you
What to do.
Thank you
It's been another
Bloody Monday
And no one
Is asking
What you wanted
Anyway
No, no, no, no...
No, no, no, no...
Bill: Looks up at the sky and screams. The blur of faces becomes slightly clearer.
Flashes of the other boys screaming as well.
Tom: In a hotel room, a girl is quickly leaving.
Gustav: On the streets of a city. Wanders aimlessly.
Georg: In a club, guzzling down one last drink.
Scream!-- Till you feel it
Scream!-- Till you believe it
Scream!-- And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud! (2x)-- Scream...
Gustav: Still walking. He looks over his shoulder. Thinks someone is watching him. Notices the shadows and spins around, suddenly a lot of people surround him.
Watch out!
Stay awake
They're lurking.
Tom: At a meet and greet type of thing. Wearing his trademark smirk and winks at every good-looking girl. One calls to him and whispers in his ear. He grabs her hand and they disappear together.
Obsess you
They're always working
Promising
Everything you never
Asked for
And one day
It'll be to lat
And you'll beg
For more.
Georg: Shaking his head. A girl walks away sadly.
No, no, no, no...
No, no, no, no...
Georg: Runs out of the club, trying to get away.
Gustav: Starts running through the crowd of people. He's trying to get away from the shadows and back to his friends.
Tom: Back to hotel room. This time it's Tom who's leaving quickly.
Bill: Leaves the building as someone was talking to him. Walks through the streets with his head down. His hair is spiked up as usual.
Scream!-- Till you feel it
Scream!-- Till you believe it
Scream!-- And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud!(2x)-- Scream...
The boys meet in the street. Look at each other curiously. They walk into the middle of the street. Someone hands Tom and Georg their guitars, Bill his microphone and Gustav sits on a stool behind the drum-set.
Back to zero
You're time's about to come
Let them know
You're not just anyone.
Scream...
Your times about to come.
They start playing the instruments. People in the street stop and look at them. A small crowd begins to grow. The people are almost in awe.
Scream!-- Till you feel it
Scream!-- Till you believe it
Scream!-- And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud! (2x)
The crowd stops and someone in the distance drives away, tires squealing. Flashes of the boys' faces.
Bill: Somber look; dark, shadowed eyes.
Tom: Glares at the spot where the vehicle took off from.
Gustav: Eyes the crowd.
Georg: Looks at the girl in the front of the crowd, the same girl from the club.
Shut up! (Silence)
They start playing again and the crowd starts to mosh.
Georg and Tom: Smash guitars.
Bill: Stage dives, crowd catches him.
Gustav: Hits the symbols one last time.
No!-- Cos you feel it
No!-- Cos you believe it
No!-- And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud!-- No, no, no, no...
Scream it out loud!-- Scream...
Author's Notes: I love the guys' video for this song but I tink this would've been nice for the English version. Then they would've had different vids for both Schrei and Scream.
One Question: my friend said that Scream doesn't translate into German and Schrei actually means cry... is this true? I'm just curious Steph!
