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

My silent scream
