Lyrics

Hey, hey, hey
I held it in for far too long
Now I'm done being quiet
I was the calm in every storm
But I cracked behind closed doors
Smiling while the fire spread
Numb from all the things unsaid
I swallowed pain like pills for peace
Been so far broken, three
And no one saw the silent war
But it was screaming at the core
So don't tell me breathe
Like I ain't drowning
Don't say let go
Like I ain't already tried
I made peace with chaos
Now I just wanna survive
Let me scream
For the nights I held my breath
Let me bleed
Every truth I never said
I won't be polite with pain
I won't sugarcoat the flame
Let me scream
Till I feel alive again
You called it strong, I called it fake
Built a cage for your comfort's sake
Said you're so composed, so wise
Did you ever look inside my eyes
They've seen too much, they've burned too long
I've carried silence like a song
But songs explode when you don't sing
So here I come unraveling
I don't want your lessons, I want space
To cry to pride, to fall with grace
Let me scream
For the years I did my life
Let me bleed
Something wild, something right
I don't need to heal on cue
I just need to come unbrew
Let me scream
Till I make it through
This is not weakness, this is release
This is not drama, this is grief
This is what happens when you lie to survive
Now I fight to feel alive
I feel it, I feel it all
And I won't apologize
Let me scream
Till the silence breaks apart
Let me breathe
With this wildfire heart
You don't have to understand
But I was never less than
Let me scream
This is how I begin again
Let me scream
Let me scream
