Alexandra Burke - The Silence Lyrics

You lift me up and knock me down
I'm never sure just what to feel when you're around
I speak my heart but don't know why
'Cause you don't never really say what's on you mind

It's like I'm walking on broken glass
I wanna know but I don't wanna ask

So say you love me or say you need me
Don't let the silence do the talking
Just say you want me or you don't need me
Don't let the silence do the talking

It's killing me, the silence
It's killing me, the silence
It's killing me, the silence

You let me in but then sometimes
Your empty eyes just make me feel so cold inside
When I'm with you it's like rolling dice
Don't know where or how you're gonna make me cry

So say you love me or say you need me
Don't let the silence do the talking
Just say you want me or you don't need me
Don't let the silence do the talking

It's killing me, the silence
It's killing me, the silence
The silence

It's like I'm walking on broken glass
I wanna know but I don't wanna ask
'Cause once you say it you can't take it back
If this is the end then please just make it fast

So say you love me or say you need me
Don't let the silence do the talking
Just say you want me or you don't need me
Don't let the silence do the talking

The silence, the silence
The silence
The silence, the silence
The silence

You lift me up and knock me down
I'm never sure just what to feel when you're around
