A Thousand Words

Straight from Savage Garden... "One of the two songs about conflict in relationships. This track is a very personal snapshot of a real life arguement and a play on linguistics and twisted meanings. The rhythm section of Terepie Richmond and Alex Hewitson take the track beyond its original Manchester feel and make it alive, grunting and believable."
-Darren Hayes

Say WHAT? The bridge thing (3:14 into the song), where a bunch of voices begin talking, and it sounds like gibberish... what on earth are they saying, you ask? Here's a piece: "I don't believe in censorship... forget about it... oh my God..."
Avoid Those Embarrassing Misheard Lyric Moments 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
-->prechorus: 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
-->prechorus
-->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
-->chorus twice
