“ sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me ” What a lie What a scandal What a stupid quote We are Human We aren't immortal We aren't immune to pain and words If words can't hurt me Then why do they bleed Into my ****** wrists And scarred thighs Why do they stun me Into tears and heartbreak Why do I reach for the razor And mix bitter tears With red liquid On the white bathroom floor Why do they cause Broken hearted lovers To keep from bridges Tear stained faces To be mourned for At funerals Why do they cause A gun to be shot And the bullet It will hit The gunner “ sticks and stones May break my bones but words will always **** me. ”

Words can't hurt me
“ sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me ” What a lie What a scandal What a stupid quote We are Human We aren't immortal We aren't immune to pain and words If words can't hurt me Then why do they bleed Into my ****** wrists And scarred thighs Why do they stun me Into tears and heartbreak Why do I reach for the razor And mix bitter tears With red liquid On the white bathroom floor Why do they cause Broken hearted lovers To keep from bridges Tear stained faces To be mourned for At funerals Why do they cause A gun to be shot And the bullet It will hit The gunner “ sticks and stones May break my bones but words will always **** me. ”
I was thinking about that quote and wonder how it came up Words will always hurt others They always will
