| Verse 1:
|
| I’m caught up in your expectations
|
| You try to make me live your dream
|
| But I’m causing you so much frustration
|
| And you only want the best for me
|
| You’re wanting me to show more interest
|
| To always keep a big bright smile
|
| But everyday I fail to impress
|
| So I cry once in a while
|
| Chorus:
|
| (And the storm is rising inside of me)
|
| Don’t you feel that our worlds collide
|
| (It's getting harder to breathe)
|
| It hurts deep inside
|
| Just let me be who I am
|
| It’s what you really need to understand
|
| And I hope so hard for the pain to go away
|
| And it’s torturing me
|
| But I can’t break free
|
| So I cry and cry but just won’t get it out
|
| The Silent Scream
|
| Verse 2:
|
| Tell me why you’re putting pressure on me
|
| And every day you cause me harm
|
| That’s the reason why I feel so lonely
|
| Even though you hold me in your arms
|
| Wanna put me in a box of glitter
|
| But I just try to get right out
|
| And you’re feeling so so bitter
|
| Because I’ve let you down
|
| Chorus:
|
| (And the storm is rising inside of me)
|
| Don’t you feel that our worlds collide
|
| (It's getting harder to breathe)
|
| It hurts deep inside
|
| Just let me be who I am
|
| It’s what you really need to understand
|
| And I hope so hard for the pain to go away
|
| And it’s torturing me
|
| But I can’t break free
|
| So I cry and cry but just won’t get it out
|
| The Silent Scream
|
| Verse 3 (hook):
|
| Can’t you see how I cry for help
|
| Cuz you should love me just for being myself
|
| I’ll drown in an ocean of pain and emotion
|
| If you don’t save me right away
|
| Chorus:
|
| Just let me be who I am
|
| It’s what you really need to understand
|
| And I hope so hard for the pain to go away
|
| And it’s torturing me
|
| But I can’t break free
|
| So I cry and cry but just won’t get it out
|
| The silent scream
|
| My silent scream |
