lyrics for a thousand lies

[Firefest9]

(whisper part-Come Closer, I got what you need- I'll crawl through your veins0Satisfaction Guarented)

(chorus)
A thousand Smile?
A Thousand Lies

I'll Break you down, you will need my ? to stay alive

A thousand Dead?
A Thousand Cries

Close your eyes and wait to die
your live will ? of a thousand lies

I dont know what your looking for
I dont know why you keep on crawling back for more
Erase, Rewind, your life is gone!

I can read you like an open book
I will steal your life like the lives you took
I will set you free from what you've become

See the neddle disapear into your skin
Shoot it up and wait for the trail/thrill?
Lay your body down and wait for the chill
and i will whisper you a lullaby that will kill

Repeat chorus (intro)


Throw away everything you got
for a rush you cannot stop
injecting the will, the will to be free

repeat pre-chorus
repeat chorus





What am i missing here with the question marks? These are some pretty dark heroin addict lyrics. I hope these are not a personal perspective from Peter!

 

[lumitalvi]

Thanks for sharing the lyrics!
Yup, I wish he has nothing to do with them personally.

(whisper part: Come Closer, I got what you need- I'll crawl into (not through) your veins and Satisfaction Guarenteed)

(chorus)
A thousand Smile? (i think smile is ok, but dont know for sure)
A Thousand Lies

I'll Break you down, you will need my guard to stay alive

A thousand Dead? (is ok i think)
A Thousand Cries

Close your eyes and wait to die
your live will fear of a thousand lies

I dont know what your looking for
I dont know why you keep on crawling back for more
Erase, Rewind, your life is gone!

I can read you like an open book
I will steal your life like the lives you took
I will set you free from what you've become

See the needle disapear into your skin
Shoot it up and wait for the thrill
Lay your body down and wait for the chill
and i will whisper you a lullaby that will kill

Repeat chorus (intro)


Throw away everything you got
for a rush you cannot stop
injecting the will, the will to be free

repeat pre-chorus
repeat chorus


this is my version, or your version with the words on the queastionmarks, with the new words marked. i hope this is the lyric. only 'smile' and 'dead' confused me... but maybe somebody else can find the words.
by the way, firefest, thanks a lot for this lyric! i hope i helped you with these words

 

[Supernova]

hmmm

not the first time Peter talks probs related to injected drugs

I always thought DARK FIELDS OF PAIN was about that if you read the lyrics well

I sure hope Peter isnt addicted to heroin, that would suck

fuck the needles, and Im sure many of us know about that

btw good lyrics tho

 

[BlackEagle]

mmm i dont think he is addicted...lots of other songs are about addiction too, like some of pain, i thought were about that too. most of the songwriters write a few songs about addiction cause you see how people slip away because it. and he's talking about 'you' and not about 'me'. and most of the times he is talking about the bad influences of heroin etc. so i think, or a friend is/was addicted. if you see a friend slipping away because of that shit, you will write a song about it! im sure!

 

[Seditious]

anyone think that SHORT little solo before verse 2 is fuckin beautiful? : )

I don't agree with a couple parts in transcriptions above
these are what I got (and posted in the "lyrics" thread before I saw this)


(Intro)
Come closer.
I've got what you need.
I crawl into your veins.
Satisfaction guaranteed.


(Chorus)
A thousand smile. A thousand lies.
I'll break you down you'll need more just to stay alive.
A thousand dead. A thousand highs.
Close your eyes and wait to die.
Your life was built on a thousand lies.


(Verse 1)
I don't know what you're looking for.
I don't know why you keep on crawling back for more.
Erase and rewind.
Your life is gone.
I can read you like an open book.
I'll steal your life like the lives you took.
I'll set you free from what you've become.

See the needle disappear into your skin.
Shoot it up and wait for the thrill.
Lay your body down and wait for the chill
and I'll whisper you lullaby that will kill.


(Chorus)
A thousand smile. A thousand lies.
I'll break you down you'll need more just to stay alive.
A thousand dead. A thousand highs.
Close your eyes and wait to die.
Your life was built on a thousand lies.


(Verse 2)
Throw away everything you've got
for a rush you cannot stop.
Injecting the will, the will to be free.

See the needle disappear into your skin.
Shoot it up and wait for the thrill.
Lay your body down and wait for the chill
and I'll whisper you lullaby that will kill.


(Chorus)
A thousand smile. A thousand lies.
I'll break you down you'll need more just to stay alive.
A thousand dead. A thousand highs.
Close your eyes and wait to die.
Your life was built on a thousand lies.

Band : Hypocrisy
Album : Virus
Song : A Thousand Lies

(Chorus)
A thousand smile. A thousand lies.
I'll break you down you'll need more just to stay alive.
A thousand dead. A thousand highs.
Close your eyes and wait to die.
Your life was built on a thousand lies.

i still think it is cries instead of highs...
and 'ill break you down, you'll need more just to stay alive ' doesnt seem to be right....i still think its 'you need my guard to stay alive' or something instead of guard... but i think we have figured this out well enough (usually there are a lot more '....' and '???') and we just hope peter will give us the lyrics and than we know which one was the best

 

[Evil_Invader]

A thousand smile. A thousand lies.
I'll break you down you'll need more just to stay alive. (sounds like my blood, but I'm sure he says more ??? )
A thousand dead. A thousand highs. I'm with Eag, cries.
Close your eyes and wait to die.
Your life was built on a thousand lies.

 

[BlackEagle]

yeah it sounds like guard, guts (maybe thats the word we're lookin for???), maybe blood, but i just cant hear 'more just'. it fits in the lyric but it's not what i hear.... i hear something like a strong 'g'.

 

[Seditious]

yeh, my mate suggested 'guts' too

but I dunno - it's about heroin (maybe coke) and as far as I know - it doesn't give you any 'guard', and you don't particularly need 'guts' - but you do end up feeling you need more just to survive.

and yeh I think it is 'cries' too - at least thats how it sounfed in the first verse *Shrug* but the second time round i was like 'hhmmm' but I'd agree with cries

 

[Supernova]

yep its definately CRIES

this song gives me the chill

 

[BlackEagle]

you dont need kidneys no, but you have to be strong, to survive and thats were you need the expression 'need more guts to stay alive'

Awesome lyrics from Peter Tagtgren like always.
