Screaming the Night Away by Guided by Voices Lyrics

Ask a choice
Hear a voice
Screaming the night away
Do your best
Hear your heart if you can

Pray the words
Happy thoughts
Happier girl

Bring her out
Make her shout
It's your day
Make it all that you can

Or place a bet
What you get
Wishing your life away
You’ll belong on a shelf
Steel-eyed ghost doll of yourself
Still all alone with no one to play
But you'll ask a choice
Hear a voice
Saying don't go

And you might answer it
Maybe you’ll do the right thing
Or you can be lost and always gone
