Do you know how much it hurts
To hear those words?
I can't help how I look.
I can't help it if it's me.
You tease me about my weight,
About my hair,
About my face.
You tease me about my clothes,
About the way I talk,
About my height.
They say "sticks and stones
May break my bones,
But words will never hurt me."
But what they don't know
Is that words can hurt
More than those sticks and stones.
Words can make someone cry.
They can make someone die.
Words can make someone smile.
They can make someone live.
Words can cut like razors.
And sting like bees.
Words can be smooth as butter
And soft as a feather.
It just all depends on
What you do with
These words.
Be careful what you say.
Sometimes it more
Than just words.

We all know how people can be. They say things all the time. Whether they mean what they say or not, it can still hurt.
