Break The Silence
Alana Grace Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Break it, break it, break it, break it
Break it, break it, break it, break it

Walls are closing in on me,
Closing fast they're smothering
Edge of darkness at my feet,
Feeling like I'm falling out of this dream
Questioning my reasons why
I feel we should say goodbye
There's only one thing I can do
To fix the situation that we're going through
I guess I got to be the one, to,

Break it, break it, break it, break it, break the silence
And just take it, take it, take it, take a moment
To tell me what you see
Cuz we're falling apart, you can't deny it
Before I lose my sanity
Just break it, break it, break it, break it, Break the silence
Between you and me

Stranded going nowhere fast, isolated in the past
Wanting out, but scared to move
To fix the situation that we're going through
I guess I got to be the one, to,

Break it, break it, break it, break it, Break the silence
And just take it, take it, take it, take a moment
To tell me what you see
Cuz we're falling apart, you can't deny it
Before I lose my sanity
Just break it, break it, break it, break it, Break the silence
Between you and me

Break it, break it, break it, break it, Break the silence

Break it, break it, break it, break it, Break the silence
And just take it, take it, take it, take a moment
To tell me what you see
We're falling apart, you can't deny it
Before I lose my sanity
Just break it, break it, break it, break it, Break the silence, oh
Just break it, break it, break it, break it, Break the silence
And just take it, take it, take it, Take a moment
To tell me what you see
Cuz we're falling apart, you can't deny it
Before I lose my sanity




Just break it, break it, break it, break it, Break the silence
Between you and me
