|
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. |
