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