[Verse 1]
Dm
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
A# C
And you only want the best for me
Dm
You try to make me show more interest
F
To always keep a big bright smile
C
Be that pinky little perfect princess
A# C
But I'm not that type of child
[Pre-chorus]
Dm A# F
And the storm is rising inside of me
Dontcha feel that our worlds collide?
C A#
It's getting harder to breathe
C Dm
It hurts deep inside
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Just let me be Who I am
F C
It's what you really need to understand
Dm A# F C
And I hope so hard for the pain to go away
Dm A#
And it's torturing me
F C
But I can't break free
Dm A# F
So I cry and cry but just won't get it out
C Dm
The silent scream
[Verse 2]
Dm
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
A# C
Even though you hold me in your arms
Dm
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
A# C
Because I've let you down
[Pre-chorus]
Dm A# F
And the storm is rising inside of me
Dontcha feel that our worlds collide?
C A#
It's getting harder to breathe
C Dm
It hurts deep inside
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Just let me be Who I am
F C
It's what you really need to understand
Dm A# F C
And I hope so hard for the pain to go away
Dm A#
And it's torturing me
F C
But I can't break free
Dm A# F
So I cry and cry but just won't get it out
C Dm
The silent scream
[Bridge]
Dm F
Can't you see
A# F
How I cry for help
Dm F
Сause you should love me
A# C
Just for being myself
Dm
I'll drown in an ocean
A#
Of pain and emotion
F C
If you don't save me right away
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Just let me be Who I am
F C
It's what you really need to understand
Dm A# F C
And I hope so hard for the pain to go away
Dm A#
And it's torturing me
F C
But I can't break free
Dm A# F
So I cry and cry but just won't get it out
C
The silent scream
[Outro]
Dm A# F C Dm
Dm A# F
C Dm
My silent scream
