[Verse 1]
F#m
I'm caught up in your expectations
A
You try to make me live your dream
E
But I'm causing you so much frustration
D E
And you only want the best for me
F#m
You try to make me show more interest
A
To always keep a big bright smile
E
Be that pinky little perfect princess
D E
But I'm not that type of child
[Pre-chorus]
F#m D A
And the storm is rising inside of me
Dontcha feel that our worlds collide?
E D
It's getting harder to breathe
E F#m
It hurts deep inside
[Chorus]
F#m D
Just let me be Who I am
A E
It's what you really need to understand
F#m D A E
And I hope so hard for the pain to go away
F#m D
And it's torturing me
A E
But I can't break free
F#m D A
So I cry and cry but just won't get it out
E F#m
The silent scream
[Verse 2]
F#m
Tell me why you're putting pressure on me
A
And every day you cause me harm
E
That's the reason why I feel so lonely
D E
Even though you hold me in your arms
F#m
Wanna put me in a box of glitter
A
But I'm just trying to get right out
E
And now you're feeling so so bitter
D E
Because I've let you down
[Pre-chorus]
F#m D A
And the storm is rising inside of me
Dontcha feel that our worlds collide?
E D
It's getting harder to breathe
E F#m
It hurts deep inside
[Chorus]
F#m D
Just let me be Who I am
A E
It's what you really need to understand
F#m D A E
And I hope so hard for the pain to go away
F#m D
And it's torturing me
A E
But I can't break free
F#m D A
So I cry and cry but just won't get it out
E F#m
The silent scream
[Bridge]
F#m A
Can't you see
D A
How I cry for help
F#m A
Сause you should love me
D E
Just for being myself
F#m
I'll drown in an ocean
D
Of pain and emotion
A E
If you don't save me right away
[Chorus]
F#m D
Just let me be Who I am
A E
It's what you really need to understand
F#m D A E
And I hope so hard for the pain to go away
F#m D
And it's torturing me
A E
But I can't break free
F#m D A
So I cry and cry but just won't get it out
E
The silent scream
[Outro]
F#m D A E F#m
F#m D A
E F#m
My silent scream
