1000 Fires

1000 Fires is the debut studio album by American singer and actress Traci Lords, released on February 28, 1995, by Radioactive Records. The album remains her only full-length music release to date. Lords started working on the album in April 1994, and collaborated with producers Juno Reactor, Mike Edwards and Babble. Executive produced by Gary Kurfirst, 1000 Fires is predominantly influenced by electronic music with elements of techno, trance and trip hop. Lyrically, it mostly focuses on dark themes, referring to Lords' past in the porn industry, revealing her rape experience on the song "Father's Field" or dealing with thoughts of suicide on "Fallen Angel".

Upon its release, the album received generally positive reviews from music critics. However, it achieved moderate commercial success because its sound was aimed more at the underground rave scene audience, and failed to enter the Billboard 200. It is currently out of print. During the promotion of the album, Lords performed as a DJ and opened shows for other artists such as Moby or the band My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult.

1000 Fires

by: Traci Lords

Outlaw Lover
He came from the desert
To this one horse town
Turned my whole life
Upside down
Branded me his little flower
Smelled of Whiskey
And his kiss was sour
I was a gunslinger
Itching for a fight
A hell bent bitch
Riding the night
I went on down to Hoot Owl Hollow
Knowin' that trouble would surely follow
Bang Bang
He's an outlaw lover
Bang Bang
Better run for cover
Bang Bang
He's an outlaw lover
You best be warned
I'm a woman scorned
With the wink of my eye
And the toss of my hair
I give my love
A deadly stare
Cause everyone knows all over town
Let's settle the score come sun down
Bang Bang
He's an outlaw lover
Bang Bang
Better run for cover
Bang Bang
He's an outlaw lover
You best be warned
I'm a woman scorned
"That cowboy had to pay for his lust
I guess you could say he bit the dust"
