Words as Weapons Lyrics

All I really want is something beautiful to say

Keep me locked up in your broken mind
I keep searchin', 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 guessin', 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 paralyzed
Why try swimming? I'm drowning in fables
You're not that saint that you externalize
You're not anything at all

It's oh-so playful when you demonize
To spit out the hateful, you're willing and able
Words are weapons I'd be 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 guessin', keep me terrified

All I really want is something beautiful to say
You keep livin' 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 guessin', 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 I'd be terrified

All I really want is something beautiful to say
Keep me guessin', 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

What is the Meaning of Words as Weapons?

In a haunting melody that echoes through the corridors of a tormented mind, this song delves into the destructive power of deceit and manipulation. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of entrapment within another's twisted perceptions, where words are wielded like daggers, cutting deep and leaving scars unseen. The protagonist pleads for something beautiful—a respite or perhaps redemption from the relentless assault of psychological warfare. Amidst the chaos, there's a desperate yearning for truth and sincerity, a beacon to shatter the darkness imposed by lies. Ultimately, it’s a battle cry for survival and the hope to remain untarnished, forever seeking beauty in a world bent on distortion.
