Lyrics for My Life For Hire as interpreted by Last Eclipse

My Life For Hire Lyrics
Somebody give me a sign,
That everything's going as planned
And then everything falls away
Into the darkness of this shallow place
The detail is striking,
This room's cold and frightening
You'll kick and you'll scream, you try everything to survive
But you should know your fate by now know your fate by now

They told me, how I should be
But I broke the mould somehow

Too vague too vague, you can try to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one, the one to watch you die, today

You, you know you gotta search yourself
Leave what you need for now
It's not the time or place your searching for
All i can give is my worst salvages
You're nothing to me, you don't like what you see
Your life's a lie, there's no where left to hide

They told me, how I should be
But I broke the mould somehow

Too vague too vague, you can try to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one, the one to watch you die, today


Watch your back, you'll lose yourself
This is a battleground
When will they know

Your life's a lie

Too vague, too vague, you can try to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one, the one to watch you die
But I swear I'll be the one, the one to watch you die

They told me, how I should be
But I broke the mould somehow

Here's my translation , hope you like...

Somebody give me a sign,
That everything's going as planned,
And then everything falls away,
Into the darkness of this shallow place.
The detail is striking,
The room's cold and frightening,
You'll kick and you'll scream,
You'll try everything to survive,
But you should know your fate by now.

They told me, how I should be,
BUT I BROKE THE MOLD SOMEHOW!
Too vague, too vague, you can try to ressolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world go watch you die. Today!

You, you know you gotta search yourself,
Leave what you need for now,
It's not the time or place you're searching for.
All I can give is my worst of intentions.
You're nothing to me, you don't like what you see,
Your life's a lie, there's no where left to hide.

They told me, how I should be,
BUT I BROKE THE MOLD SOMEHOW!
Too vague, too vague, you can try to ressolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world go watch you die.
Too vague, too vague, you can try to ressolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world go watch you die.

Watch your back, you'll lose yourself!
This is a battleground!
When will they know,
Your life's a lie.

Too vague, too vague, you can try to ressolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world go watch you die.

Too vague, too vague, you can try to ressolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world go watch you die.

They told me, how I should be,
BUT I BROKE THE MOLD SOMEHOW!

It's actually

"Too vague, too vague, you can try to resolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one, the one to watch you die."

I was so amazed when this song went up on YouTube. I easily recognized the breakdown from the intro they play live. If you haven't seen them live yet then...there's something wrong with you.lol

Where it says "i swear i'll be the one to let the world go watch you die today" i think it really says "but i swear i'll be the one to let the world know what you've done to me". If you listen to it it easily sounds like both, but the lyrics that come with the cd say let the world know what you've done to me, so i'm assuming that's the one thats right?

also, "you gotta search yourself" sounds like "assert yourself"

I hear

"It's too late, too late to restore the passion right now."

Maybe that's just me. No? Yes?

Still-fake, two-faced. You can try to resolve the past right now. But I swear I'll be the one...to remember what you've done to me.

I spent the last 15 minutes listening to that part over and over but I swear that's what it sounds like. You can hear the "d" sound on two-faced and can't on still-fake so they are 2 different words. Plus it makes sense in the context of the song and not to mention there is no L-sound so it's not "too late, too late" Listen to it starting at 2:56 and Jeremy's vocals sound a little bit clearer.

Or maybe not...

mlm, i know what you're saying and trust me i've ran a bunch of different phrases through my head, but the lyrics came with the booklet which i'd assume are correct and it says:

Too late, too late, you keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world know what you've done to me

I think these are pretty much accurate:

Somebody give me a sign, that everything's going as planned.
And that everything floats away, into the darkness of this shallow place.
The detail is striking.
The room's cold and frightening.
You'll kick and you'll scream, you'll try everything to survive.
But you should know your fate by now.

They told me, how I should be..
But I broke the mould somehow!

It's too late, too late, you keep trying to resolve the past right now. But I swear I'll be the one, to let the world know what you've done.. to me

YOOOOU, you know you gotta assert yourself leave what you need for now.
It's not the time or place you're searching for.

All I can give them is my worst of intentions.
You're nothing to me, cos you ain't what you seem and your life's a lie.
There's no where left to hide.

They told me, how I should be..
But I broke the mould somehow!

It's too late, too late, you keep trying to resolve the past right now. But I swear I'll be the one, to let the world know what you've done.. to me (x2)

Watch your back, you'll lose yourself.
THIS IS A BATTLEGROUND!
WHEN WILL THEY KNOW?!

Your lifes a lieeee...

It's too late, too late, you keep trying to resolve the past right now. But I swear I'll be the one, to let the world know what you've done.. to me (x2)

They told me, how I should be..
But I broke the mould somehow!

I really think that its "Too Fake, Two Faced." at least thats what it sounds like to me. I listened to it a million times since ive got the cd and i still cant put in the lines too vague or too late. it just doesnt work

im pretty sure the words are...

Somebody give a sign, that everything's going as planned.
And that everything floats away, into the darkness of this shallow place.
The detail is striking.
The room's cold and foggy.
You'll kick and you'll scream, you'll try everything to survive.
But you should know your fate by now.

Bridge:
They told me, how I should be.
(chant)

Chorus:
Too late, Too late, you can't try to resolve the past right now. But I sware I'll be the one, the one to remember what you've done.. to me.

YOOOOU, you know you gotta' assert yourself with what you need for now.
It's not the time or place you're searching for.

All I can give is my worst self-intentions.
You're nothing to me, if I write what you see then your life's a lie.
There's no where left to hide.

Bridge

Chorus(2x)

Watch your back, you'll lose yourself.
THIS IS A BATTLEGROUND!
WHEN WILL THEY KNOW!

Your lifes a lie...

Bridge

Verse 1:
Somebody give me a sign
That everything's going as planned.
And then everything falls away
Into the darkness of this shallow place.
The detail is striking.
The room's cold and fright'ning.
You'll kick and you'll scream.
You'll try everything to survive.
But you should know your fate by now.

Pre-Chorus:
They told me how I should be.
But I broke the mold somehow.

Chorus:
Too late, too late to keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done
To me.

Verse 2:
You, you know you've gotta search yourself
Leave what you need for now.
It's not the time or place you're searching for.
All i can give is my worst of intentions.
You're nothing to me, and ev'ryone can see that your life's a lie.
There's nowhere left to hide.

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus x 2)

Bridge:
Watch your back.
You'll lose yourself.
This is a battleground.
When will they know.

Your life's a lie.

(Chorus x 2)
(Background: First three lines of Verse 1)

(Pre-Chorus)


I'm pretty sure the above is about correct.
I love this song :)

sorry for double posting.

and scratch the pretty sure part from the previous
the beginning of the chorus is definitely not "too late, too late"
they start with "f" or "v" sounds
