Sticks & Stones

I’m a victim of your pain
But I have no one else to blame but me
There were choices guaranteed
I closed my eyes, and turned the other cheek

[Chorus:]
Sticks and Stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell

You don’t own me - I am free
I’ll take the high road and pray that it takes me
Company loved misery
Until it chose to change the scenery

[Chorus:]
Sticks and Stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
I’m a fighter on the mend
And I will rise above the world you spin
You fail, I wish you well

[Bridge:]
I’m letting go of you - I’m letting go of me
I’m letting go of all the things that hold me down emphatically
I’m letting go of time – I’m letting go of space
I’m letting go of all the waste I’ve carried to this place

[Chorus:]
Sticks and Stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
I’m a fighter to the end
I have rose above the world you spin
You fail, I wish you well
