Words can’t hurt me.

 
 
Words can’t hurt me.
 
 
Words can’t hurt me.
Tell me that again and again.
Cause I ain’t believing it.
Words can’t hurt.
 
Oh no they can’t hurt me.
Sticks and stones you say?
They bring pain for real.
Something you can see.
 
Words though can’t bring pain you say.
Your words, they crushed me inside.
They changed me and sent me spinning in life.
You can’t see my pain. Oh no?
 
Words can’t hurt me.
Tell me that again and again.
Cause I ain’t believing it.
Words can’t hurt.
 
Bring on those sticks.
Bring on those stones.
I will take that pain every damn day.
Bring them on.
 
Please daddy no more words.
No that pain doesn’t go away.
You hold the cure to that pain.
You hold it tight and won’t let it go.
 
The pain pierces my very core.
I search for the answers.
For the keys to unlock the pain.
Daddy you hold that key.
 
Words can’t hurt me.
Tell me that again and again.
Cause I ain’t believing it.
Words can’t hurt.
 
You said I wasn’t meant to be.
How could you not see the pain in me?
Could you not hear my heart shatter?
Could you not see the hole in my little soul?
 
I never wanted to let you down.
I always wanted to make you proud.
Words can’t hurt me you say.
 
I found my own keys now daddy.
I unlocked my pain daddy.
The healing comes.
Bring on the words.
 
Cause there ain’t no hole in my soul now.
No there ain’t no shattered heart anymore.
No pain in my brain daddy.
Your words, there gone.
 
Daddy you were right about one thing.
And that is…
 
Words can’t hurt me.
Words can’t hurt me now
Not now, not ever again.
 
Words can’t hurt me.
Words can’t hurt me now.
Not now, not ever again.
