SAVAGE GARDEN LYRICS - A Thousand Words

"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



[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]
