Paradise Lost - Say Just Words Lyrics






You get high, with your destructive instinct
You get high, with your corrosive instinct -
Where can I go, to escape your foul mind tricks
You're trying it more, but you will never break me
Cause you presume, the winner's you but that's not true

So say just words to me, unreal what your hate's providing
Say just words to me, your talk is always contradiction
Say just words to me, you won't feel the warmth of friends around you
You say just words to me, is it true that there's worth inside,
So say just words to me.

Your designs, all the worse from power craving
Your desires, only where there's fire burning,
I'll show you the way, a pleasure that's for the taking
You're trying it more, but you won't get satisfaction
Couse you presume the winner is you, but that's not true
So say just words to me.

    Painful to watch/listen

    My all times favorite band
    to this day.  But I wish they disbanded
    after Draconian Times.  One Second is
    good music and painfully but it was accepted by most fans who grew with the
    band from the start.  But there is no
    excuse for the rest of the upcoming albums that were a string of lame attempts
    to return to their roots.  While I can
    stomach most of One Second and I love every single song on every album and EP
    up to and including Draconian Times, there isn't a single song, not one, that I
    like on any of the following albums.  Not
    because there aren’t some OK ones.  This
    is not a matter of being open minded.  I
    listen to a large variety of music.  For
    me Paradise Lost died at OneSecond.  I am
    not sad that it ended.  I am happy that
    existed.

  20. C.... ....

    Was never a fan of this band and this is the only album I ever bought by them and that was because I fucking loved it.
    Amazing how one album stands out so much despite traditionally not liking their stuff.

  21. M.... ....

    Great band !

  22. j.... ....

    Gold 90'

  23. M.... M....

    Fabulous song !!! I love it !

  24. F.... S....

    grandi ottimo arrangiamento

  25. C.... C....

    This was part of their "Gothic Rock" era (One Second, Host, Believe In Nothing, Symbol Of Life, Paradise Lost). They introduced more Gothic Rock and Electronic Rock elements between 1997 to just before 2007 to show the influence of that style of music they embedded into their "Gothic Metal" approach. Although Gothic Metal is quite seperated from Gothic Rock, there is some fusion via the Alternative Metal efforts they worked on. Other than that, its nice to see a band that presents a versatility within being a band that was rooted in Death Metal and Doom Metal. They show how they have an attraction to both the "darkness" of metal music just as well as the "darkness" of post-punk styles that were loosely connected to Goth. In general they have proven to be one of the best Dark Hard Rock/Metal bands from the post-thrash scene.

    C.... C....

    "Gothic" (1991) was the essence of Gothic Metal. And maybe "As i Die" (1992). After that, they became more fluffy and Holmes tried to sound like James Hetfield..

  45. N.... p....

    Te drogaste, con tu destructivo instinto
    Te drogaste, con tu corrosivo instinto
    ¿A dónde puedo ir?, para escapar de tus trucos mentales viles
    Intentas encontrar mi límite, pero nunca podrás vencerme
    Porque tú presumes de ser el ganador, pero eso no es cierto
    Así que dices solo palabras para mí, es irreal lo que tu odio está proporcionando
    Dices solo palabras para mí, no quieres sentir el afecto de tus amigos que te rodean
    Dices solo palabras para mí, si es cierto que hay calor en tu interior
    Dices solo palabras para mí
    Tus deseos,
    todo el mal surgido del anhelo del poder
    Tus deseos, solo donde hay fuego ardiendo
    Te mostraré el placer que surge de hablar
    Intentas encontrar mi límite pero no encontrarás satisfacción
    Porque tú presumes de ser el ganador, pero eso no es cierto
    Así que dices solo palabras para mí...

    Бойся не тех, кто за твоей спиной, и не тех, кто перед тобой, а уж тем более не тех, кто али справа, али слева... Бойся себя самого - слабого духом, слабого телом, слабого умом, слабого волей. Возможно, именно так говорил Заратустра...

    Nick’s clean “goth” voice > Nick’s death voice > Nick’s Hetfield voice.

  52. N.... ....

    Απο τα πρώτα τους που ακουσα. Απο τα καλυτερα τους κομμάτια. Απο ενα άλμπουμ αριστουργημα απ την αρχή ως το τελος. Το one second καθορισε την πορεία του συγκροτήματος αφήνοντας βέβαια και στοιχεία τους που έχουμε δει και στα προηγούμενα άλμπουμ τους χωρίς να αλλάζουν το στυλ τους ολοκληρωτικα.

  53. P.... D....

    Wy back when I was younger I used to cover that song on live shows with my band regularly, although I didn't know it. I loved Paradise Lost but not that particular record. It was quite fun but nothing special to me.

    Now, almost ten years later, I´ve moved on, play in other bands, my former group doesn't exist, the former drummer has passed away and what do I do? I drink beer and watch videos like this on YouTube with an impact that song has never had on me before.

    I think I'm getting old. :D

    This sounds like a different band compared to their new stuff.

  75. �.... �....

    Это первый трэк и клип услышанный и увиденный мною по телику, индастриал жанра. Услышал в школьные годы, двадцать лет назад, впечатления были до глубины души, до глубины души, сравнимые наверно, с первым оргазмом. Программа, в которой ставили рок новинки для рокеров, была местная, выходила поздно ночью и раз в неделю, им бюджет большего не позволял. Что бы узнать новые для себя рок группы, приходилось пробираться тихо, на <цыпочках> мимо комнаты родителей в зал где стоял телик и в тихоря от родителей слушать, рок музыка в нашей семье была “табуирована”, родители считали, что рок это зло (“Школоте” - не понять) Зло, добро-просто слова, их каждый понимает по своему и выбирает сам к чему стремиться и это норма.👍✌✌🤘🏻🤘🏻 Жизнь это музыка и у каждого она своя, - звучит неповторимо.

    Владимир Бабкин, да ты настоящий философ!

    я открыл передайз лост с кассеты дракониан таймс купленной в подземном переходе ))) вот то реальна оргазм был ...дрочу по сей день )) эту песнь последний отголосок нормального живого ника холмса ..все остальное к сожалению полный отстой (((

    This is the first track and clip what I saw and heard on TV, the industrial genre. Heard in school, twenty years ago, it was deeply, deeply, comparable perhaps with the first orgasm. The program, which put rock news for riders, was local, went out late at night and once a week, they budget no longer allowed. To find out a new rock band, had to sneak quietly, in by parents to the hall where there was a telly and tihorya from parents to listen to rock music in our family was “taboo”, the parents thought that rock is evil (“Shkolota” - do not understand) Evil and good are just words, everyone understands them in his own way and chooses to aspire and this is the norm.👍✌✌🤘🏻🤘🏻 Life is music and it's different for each is unique.

  77. F.... F....

    This is a good HIM song.

    F.... F....

    Mega Taco lol

    F.... F....

    Well said ! :)

  78. B.... A....

    Dont say bullshit about them because I have seen Paradise Lost just two days ago and they played a mixed setlist between song like this and others olders as strong doom with Holmes growling,don't forget that he also sings in Bloodbath and,although in that group I prefer singing Akerfield from Opeth,Holmes is an outstanding singer and Paradise Lost are father of Doom 🙂,just enjoy the music

    B.... A....

    Well said buddy

  79. K.... B....

    sounds like pop rock music to me.....whats wrong with paradise lost.....

  80. R.... R....

    Dann nehmt den scheiss doch erst garnicht :'(
    scheiss Mitteilungsbedürfnis, back to the roots

  81. C.... P....

    Looks like he's talking to a narcisistic personality

  82. M.... ....

    No disrespect to this band but are they trend chasers? I've had a chance to listen to Believe in Nothing and it's a good album but it sounds like grunge with a sprinkle of goth. I love that album from start to finish but then I hear other stuff like no hope in sight and from someone new to this band that doesn't even sound like the same band.

    M.... ....

    Certain members of PL have gone on record saying that that period was a dark time, due to the fact their label (EMI) took creative control of their music. I think that explains the direction. Personally though, I think they've always carried with them their own distinct sound, regardless of style.

  83. W.... ....

    I wish they made more music like this instead of going full doom metal on their last albums.Which is not a bad thing, don't get me wrong, but does anyone know any bands that play a similar style of metal as in this song?

    W.... ....

    Amorphis aren't near as electronically driven, but a lot songs from them could be considered similar. I would recommend Better Unborn, House of Sleep, and Silver Bride.

  84. R.... S....

    Paradise Lost has one fucking impressive portfolio thorough the years!!

  85. A.... C....

    icon , draconian times , one second 10/10
    host 9/10
    gothic, shades of god 8/10
    symbol of life , paradise lost , in requiem , faith divides us death unites us , tragic idol , 7/10
    believe in nothing , the plague within 6/10

  86. T.... K....

    This is my favorite PL album after Draconian Times. At the time of its release it should've gotten them huge recognition as this style was popular but as usual radio only plays what theyre paid to play and not all good music gets heard by more people. I like all of their stuff heavy or not, they just have a sound that I'll listen to.

  87. B.... B....

    weird how the lip sync is off except for the last chorus?

  88. s.... ....

    >>> + Say Just Words + <<<

    The track is excellent... The video not so much...

    When I hear this I must think of Queensberry - Too Young ('' We were just too young'') ♥♥♥

  92. s.... s....

    the band at its worst.. no idea how they could come up with such average bullshit. listen to their last one for christ s sake....what the fuck is this pop shit? what a shame to put this out as paradise lost

  93. t.... ....

    20 years passed so fast! I was watching this clip almost daily on Mtv. It's still awesome!!!

  94. C.... m....

    amazing !

  95. O.... ....

    The song is actually pretty good, like most of the album. But the production and the way Nick is singing is so poppy and overpolished that the music starts to suck.
