"Try Not To Scream"
"Try Not To Scream"
Parody of "Try Not To Breathe" by R.E.M.

I will try not to scream
I can hold my head high with this mask I behold
This price for the lives of the old
To keep them in the fold

I will try not to scream
This decision is mine
I'll ignore all the fools
Cause these are the rules that
I want you to remember

I will try not to burden you
I can stay here inside
I will do my part until all infected survive
Just give us the time

I will try not to touch you
We could spread germs that we will never see
Please understand this restraint
Oppression it ain't

I want you to remember

I will try not to scare you
But I have seen things that result from disease
Things you would never believe
So please help us achieve

I want you to remember
