You would have kept those words on your tongue

If you had known the hurt they had done

While your fists stay by, right by your side

Your words they bruise me deep inside

I'd rather have sticks and stones and broken bones

Than the words you say to me

'Cause I know bruises heal and cuts will seal

But your words beat the life from me

Sometimes your words are thick as lead

You swing them strong upside my head

But what hasn't killed has made me strong

So I'll take my scars and move along

Rather have sticks and stones and broken bones

Than the words you say to me

'Cause I know bruises heal and cuts will seal

But your words beat the life from me

Goodbye is the best way that I know

To forgive and still be letting go

I'd rather have sticks and stones and broken bones

Than the words you say to me

'Cause I know that bruises heal and cuts will seal

But your words beat the life from me
