Background
The original demo of "Shouting Out", recorded with producer Scott Crowley, featured vocals by Mindy Nilson of Lemon Krayola who had previously performed the song live with the band. Her vocals were replaced by another female singer's, named Kimberly Rogers, on the album. Sean Dowdell told LPAssociation in 2003 she was "a friend of mine from a long time ago." The track also features a hidden track, a version of "Morei Sky", which producer David Knauer explained to LPLive in 2015: "Yes, that was headphone bleed. During the tracking of Wake Me, as we were recording basic tracks, Chester was sitting on the couch in the back of the studio and sang along so the band could hear him in the headphones. That track you hear is what was recorded on his handheld mike which included the music in the control room, the click track for tempo, him singing, and him talking to his girlfriend who was sitting with him."

Lyrics
Silent criminals analyzed
Through psychic waving tears
Superstitious minds collide
As silence fills the hall
Silence moving proclamations
This silence proving lies, (Oh, woah, oh)
Speechless cries, emotions dull (Oh, woah, oh)
Shouting out across the hall
I didn't mean to let you down
I'm shouting out so ashamed
I didn't mean to run from you
I didn't mean to
Shouting out
(I'm shouting out...)
Shouting weakness in your eyes
You're crawling on your knees
Roaming aimless through skies lost
As silence shakes the halls
Creeping past all illusions
Searching thoughts that hide (Oh, woah, oh)
Silence brakes in weeping hands (Oh, woah, oh)
Shouting out and in again
Didn't mean to run from you
I'm shouting out, so ashamed
I didn't mean to let you down
I didn't mean to
Shouting out
Shouting out
La de da
Shouting out
La de da
La de da da hum [x8]

Yeah
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Silent criminals analyzed
Through psychic waving tears (Ooh, yeah)
Superstitious minds collide
As silence fills the hall
Silence moving proclamations (Ooh, yeah)
This silence proving lies,
Speechless cries, emotions dull
Shouting out across the hall
Didn't mean to run from you (Yeah)
I'm shouting out so ashamed
I didn't mean to let you down
I didn't mean to
Shouting out
(I'm shouting out...)
Shouting weakness in your eyes
You're crawling on your knees
Roaming aimless through skies lost
As silence shakes the halls
Creeping past all illusions (Yeah)
Searching thoughts that hide
Silence brakes in weeping hands
Shouting out and in again
I didn't mean to let you down (Yeah)
I'm shouting out so ashamed
Didn't mean to run from you
I didn't mean to
Shouting out
