Nicola Roberts – Say It Out Loud lyrics

How many tears can you count on your fingers?
How many diets can you do to get thinner?
How many wishes can you make while you're praying?
How many times have you heard them all saying,

Hush little babe, don't over-react
Keep it all in and hold it all back
Hush little darling, time to save face
Give it some time, go down with some grace

All across the nation
Put your hands up if you're faking
Say it out loud, woah
'Cause the only medication
For a heart that knows it's breaking
Is to get it out now
Say it out loud, woah, oh woah

When was the last time that you could be honest?
Do you feel bad now you've broken your promise?
How many times do you say you're gonna leave him?
You beat yourself up now 'cause all you keep hearing

Hush little babe, don't over-react
Keep it all in and hold it all back
Hush little darling, time to save face
Give it some time, go down with some grace

All across the nation
Put your hands up if you're faking
Say it out loud, woah
'Cause the only medication
For a heart that knows it's breaking
Is to get it out now
Say it out loud, woah

Let's take a minute
Make it stop
Let me off
Make the beat drop
Strip it all back
'Til it's pitch black
Where the stars fall

Take a minute
Drop me off
Back to the start,
Start of my heart
Feel it in my bones
I'm feeling right at home
Say it out loud

All across the nation
Put your hands up if you're faking
Say it out loud, woah
'Cause the only medication
For a heart that knows it's breaking
Is to get it out now
Say it out loud, woah
