Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me
What they say is lies
It makes me want to cry
Because words will always hurt me
Sticks and stones can't even make me me moan
But words can make me scream
Don't trust a soul
Away you must pull
For all their words are themed
They make rhyming quotes
And shove them down your throat
But their words are hardly truthful
Yes sticks and stones can break my bones
But words can crush my soul
The soul goes out
And the mind fills with doubt
Words will always pain me
As you go on
Keep this in your head like a song
Words can kill on the count of three
