Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me I think I finally know what it means
At first I was one of the cases that proved this little saying wrong For the words and phrases others threw were strong Slamming my head on the wall against my will Pinching my skin leaving marks all over
But then I realized take there words and find the true meaning Find that and their words are less demeaning They no longer have the power to make you feel So small that you feel like an ant with the that glass above you as they try to burn you
Take the words they throw at you and toss back the meanings Toss them with such force that they recognize what their words means then walk away and smile and chant
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me
