Its words that kill
Verse
I’m looking for answers
Upturning stones.
There have to be reasons.
I am alone.
Verse
Does my face look ugly?
Am I just strange?
Too fat or too skinny?
What is to blame?
Pre chorus
I don’t judge I’m not selfish.
I’m average in build.
I’m not plain, I’m not pretty.
I’m not of strong will.
Chorus
Sticks and stones can break your bones
But its words that kill.
Bridge
Tell me I’ll change it.
Give it a name.
I want an answer.
What should I change?
Verse
I’ll gain weight I’ll lose weight
Have surgery.
I’ll smile more, I’ll frown less.
Be a new me.
Verse
I can’t change the unknown.
I need to know.
It’d help if you told me
Which way to go.
Pre chorus
I don’t judge I’m not selfish.
I’m average in build.
I’m not plain, I’m not pretty.
I’m not of strong will.
Chorus
Sticks and stones can break your bones
But its words that kill.
