 Just repeat  I  I  I
 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 yeah
 (the silence)
 Wooooo
 (the silence)
 It's like
 I'm (i'm) walking on (walking on) broken glass
 I wanna know but i don't wanna ask
 'cause once you say it
 You can't take it back
 And this the end and please just fake it fast
 Modulation!  I  I  I
 So say you love me
 Or say you need me
 Don't let the silence (ooohhhh)
 Do the talking
 Just say you want me (say you want me)
 Or you don't need me (but you don't want me)
 Don't let the silence
 Do the talking
 Wooooooh
 (love in silence)
 You lift me up
 And knock me down
 I'm never sure just what to feel when you're around
