Words As Weapons

All I really want is something beautiful to say

Keep me locked up in your broken mind
I keep searching, never been able
To find a light behind your dead eyes
Not anything at all

You keep living in your own lie
Ever deceitful and ever unfaithful
Keep me guessing, keep me terrified
Take everything from my world

Say, can you help me right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves

Keep me dumb, keep me paralysed
Why try swimming? I'm drowning in fables
You're not that saint that you externalise
You're not anything at all

It's oh-so playful when you demonise
To spit out the hateful, you're willing and able
Your words are weapons of the terrified
You're nothing in my world

Say, can you help me right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves

All I really want is something beautiful to say
Keep me guessing, keep me terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
You keep living in your own lie
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away, I wanna live forever
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away, I wanna live forever
You keep living in your own lie
Keep me guessing, keep me terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say

Say, can you help me right before the fall
Take what you can and leave me to the wolves

All I really want is something beautiful to say
Words are weapons of the terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
Keep me guessing, keep me terrified
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away, I wanna live forever
All I really want is something beautiful to say
To never fade away, I wanna live forever
