She, she screams in silence
A sullen riot penetrating through her mind
Waiting for a sign
To smash the silence with the brick of self-control
Are you locked up in a world that's been planned out for you?
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm taking heed just for you
She, she's figured out
All her doubts were someone else's point of view
Waking up this time
To smash the silence with the brick of self-control

i've never heard this played on here!! this was my high school comfort song. my mom used to get beat up in green day pits in socal all throughout middle and high school. thinking of listening to this song as a teenage girl crying into my cigarette and kicking a rock down the street makes me imagine my mama doing the exact same thing back then. music is really the binding thread of life <3
I listened a lot to this album when it got out and didn't here it for a good two decades until Bill pulled it from some dusty drawer recently. It always catapults me back to the 90s immediately!

She is great. But you might also want to revisit Sassafras Roots - that's my number 1!!!
Might be my favourite from Dookie!

Rocking track made all the better by the lyrics celebrating uplifted rebellion against a system that's built to keep women down. Only took me about 30 years of owning this album to recognize how resonant the message is.
He won't be a great guitarist, but Billie Joe's rhythm work is so tight!
SO happy this is in the mix! Kudos to RP for opening the gates a tad this year!
Might be my favourite from Dookie!
Boy...they sure had alot of energy and freedom.
The essence of all rock n roll.

I tried really hard to like my daughters taste in music, it didn't turn her off it. Sadly now in her 20s she still likes Swift and all that guff.
Daughter (13): "Look, if I have to rebel against you with music I'd have to go and like Selena Gomez or K-pop. I'd rather you just take me to a Greenday concert next time they come here."
Thus passing the torch....

This just rocks, and I love it.
waiting to see how this plays out = easy 7 for what it is

Finally some new old music!

why sadly? sure it isn't for you, or for me either, but there's nothing sad about it. the meaning and value songs like this have to us is the same meaning and value she finds in "Swift and all that guff". elitism never leads to joy. prejudice never leads to connection. find joy in her joy :)
