Laura originally titled this song “Jamaican Me Crazy,” but the band decided to use the title “Scream It Until You’re Coughing Blood.” Although It’s listed everywhere as “Scream…” inside the Lyric insert on the cd it is listed as “Jamaican Me Crazy.”
[Verse 1]
Everything
You got to hold on to
Everything
You relied on to be there is completely fucked
There's a skeleton of loyalty hanging in the gallows of your heart
No one wins this one
And where are your friends?
Please help me through these years ahead
Are we just drinking buddies
Playing with each other's deepest vulnerability?
That this is all we know?
So this is how it's gonna stay?
I think I would rather
Remember how it was and go our separate ways
I don't feel anything
Unless we are living and dying for each other
Every second of our lives
[Verse 2]
Everything
You thought that it would be
Everything
You thought you were living for is completely fucked
This is no place to be
If we don't get out of here right now
We're just gonna end up drunk, fucking
And fighting and working machines
If I have another cigarette
If I drink another beer
Sit quiet another time when I should've said
"Oh, this is too much
There are things I never wanted to be."
This ship has sprung a leak
And I'll be damned if I'm going down with it
Still breathing at any cost
