ROOM FULL OF NOISE
L.A. Awoyinka, King Britt
Eniola’s Song (ASCAP) / Sylk 130 Music (ASCAP)

VERSE
I’m in a roomful of noise
And I just can’t hear myself
Though I scream and shout
Nobody seems to care

I’m in a room full of strangers
And nobody wants to share
With each to his own, all locked in a zone
Heading nowhere

I’m in this room with a view
And I can’t see beyond my tears
Locked in this prison
My hopes and dreams disappear.

HOOK
Show me the way
show me the way
To get outta here
Take me away

Show me the way
Show me the way
I’ve got to get outta here
Right away

In this room full of noise
Nobody seems to care
Like a square in a hole
said I don’t belong out here

In this room full of strangers
The only sounds I hear
Are loud and empty promises
That don’t mean a thing anywhere, oh

HOOK
Show me the way
Show me the way
To get outta here
Take me away

Show me the way
Show me the way
I’ve got to get outta here
Right away

OUTRO
Said it’s cloudy and grey on a summer’s day
And it’s much too warm for the kids to play
The skies above full of acid rain
The seas and the rivers poisoned up for days to come
It’s overcast and dull
there’s a firestorm ahead
What will tomorrow bring
when we’re finally done
When we’re finally gone
when we’re finally done
What will tomorrow bring
Said it’s cloudy and grey on a summer’s day
There’ll be nowhere left for the kids to play
Come on and show me the way, oh
I’ve got to get out, get out, get out of here……
