I'm caught up in your expectations.
You're trying to make me live your dream.
But I'm causing you so much frustration.
And you only want the best for me.
You wanted me to show more interests.
To always keep a big bright smile
Be that pinky little perfect princess.
But I'm not that type of child.
And this storm is rising inside of me.
Don't you feel that our whole 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.
Tell me why you're putting pressure on me.
And everyday 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'm just trying to get right out.
And now you're feeling so so bitter.
Because I let you down.
And this storm is rising inside of me.
Don't you feel that our whole 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.
Can't you see how I cry for help
Cause 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.
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.
