Words can break,
Words can heal,
Words can make you feel,
Words can be a dream,
Words can be a curse,
But as for me,
Your words are my hearse.

Don't they know,
She can hear,
The words whispered,
Ear to ear,
Heart to heart,
They are the words that tear her apart,

They remind her of her imperfections,
Every word they say,
Why do they always treat her this way?

She listens,
She hears,
To the words that break her heart,
They take hold,
And stay firm,
The words that tore her apart,

She listened,
She wept,
Down the hall she crept,
In the middle of the night,
Cuts on the left,
Blade in the right,
It all ended on that fateful night,

Now it's their turn to cry,
They never stopped to say "Why?",
They weep,
They cry,
Because of them she said goodbye,

Words can break,
Words can heal,
Words made her feel,
Words can be a dream,
Words can be a curse,
But your words were her hearse.
