Time is like a flower   Secret garden buried in my mind   Nurtured in the shadows   Growing into love just givin time      Your sticks and stones   May break my bones   But your words tear me apart   Your sticks and stones   May break my bones   But your words will break my heart in two      Every time you hurt me   You swear you only do it out of love   But every word is poison   Every broken promise etched in blood      Your sticks and stones   May break my bones   But your words tear me apart   Your sticks and stones   May break my bones   But yours will break my heart in two      Every time I fail you   I carve another story in my arm   You could read my future   A tragedy is written in the scars      Your sticks and stones   May break my bones   But your words tear me apart   Your sticks and stones   May break my bones   But your words will break my heart   Your sticks and stones   May break my bones   But your words tear me apart   Your sticks and stones   May break my bones   But your words will break my heart in two
