A Thousand Words
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
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
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
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
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
