Words are the world to me
Something to be said
And never to see
You throw them about like
they are meaningless
Wondering why it is
I might digress
Wondering why
my pain still lingers
That I write it all down
Some in broken fingers
All the words you may use
to win me to your side
All the words you choose
Even when you lied
How every one meant everything
How every one\'s the thought you bring
Every word a new creation
Hanging on that last conversation
That is the effect
of all your words you know
The ones you so carelessly throw
Wondering why they mean so much
They are what I love you see
The words mean everything to me
I write them down every day
They influence me in every way
Your words can cause gaping wounds
Or be the ones to make me swoon
All I know is how carelessly
you throw them around
But in your words is where
true meaning is found
I listen to the words that you say
Everyone every day
So please speak them carefully dear friend
The wrong ones could bring certain end
