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