We stumble in a tangled web,
|
decaying friendships almost dead
|
And hide behind a mask of lies
|
We twist and turn and we avoid,
|
all hope of salvage now devoid
|
I see the truth inside your eyes
|
So take all this noise into your brain
|
and send it back again
|
I'll bear the cost, shed my skin, call
|
you up and then...
|
I'll say the words out loud
|
|
[chorus:]
|
You could resurrect a thousand
|
words to deceive me more and more
|
A thousand words will give the
|
reasons why I don't need you
|
anymore
|
|
Time manipulates your heart,
|
preconceptions torn apart
|
Begin to doubt my state of mind
|
But I won't go down on what I said
|
I won't retract convictions read
|
I may perplex, but I'm not blind
|
So take all this noise into your brain
|
and send it back again
|
I'll bear the cost, shed my skin, call
|
you up and then...
|
I'll say the words out loud
|
|
[chorus ]
|
|
I'll say the words out loud. I'll say a
|
thousand words or more
|
|
Manipulation. Fabrication.
|
Conversation. Annihilation
|
I'll say a thousand words or more
|
Damnation. Frustration. Elevation.
|
Procreation
|
I'll say a thousand words or more
|
|
[repeat chorus]
