sticks and stones

"sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me"
is what you always hear
but at the time
words werent knives
just inocent playthings
but everything corrupts
if you give it time
if its just a puppet
silent as a mime
yeah sticks may poke and prod
and stones leave bruises
but words make you question if there is a god
and in arguments your side always loses
stones and sticks may leave scars
but what you say can too,
they say you can reach for the stars
but to limit what you do
you may be sore from sticks and stones
but words can end a life
those sticks and stones leave you with broken bones
but words can weild a knife
