The Killing Words Lyrics

Wait for me I'll understand
I just need time to comprehend your changes
There's always been these changes in you
I remember that there was a time when
Fears we had we left behind and we danced
But it seems the more we learn
We learn that it's

Over, Over
It's dangerous this game we play
You're killing me with words

Forget if you can
The way you moved when our hands touched
You forced me to force you
Do you remember the dreams,
the nightmares we shared?
The poison of love so pure it's deceiving
And deceit is all we have it's got to be over

Over, Over
It's dangerous this game we play
You're killing me with words
Over, Over
Too late to take a chance again it's over

This might be the sexiest song Queensryche has ever done, with Geoff's voice and the lyrics combined, also the vampiric sounds in the music.

"you forced me to force you" is a great concept.

"the nightmares we shared, the poison of love so pure it's deceiving".

It sounds like the inevitable end of a dysfunctional but addictive relationship. I had one of those.

I like the verses, but the chorus is a bit bland.

never thought of that but yeah kinda..."it's dangerous this game we play" that part is good though

@Aniland whoa you replied an entire decade later!

@Aniland good to see that you are still around 10 years on too!!

Eh, this one's obviously about a relationship damaged beyond repair. Ice, old chap, you forgot to include the last little bit of the lyrics:

Now the wireless in my hand is ringing The distance of our lives keeps spreading The pounding I hear, my heart I'm not listening Your voice from far away screaming, "IT"S OVER"

Hey,has anyone been to queensryche.com?Because they have this kind of concert coming up called the queensryche cabaret.It's an adults only rock show that involves things like stripers and jugglers.It's kind getto and stupid.

QUEENRYCHE RULES!!!

Oh, that does sound stupid...I never saw using female flesh to sell your music as very effective, when women listen to music too and get sick of it.
