Silent Scream - Damien Dawn

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
