Sticks And Stones
Shot down by your bullets
They shatter my face and my bones
If you listen to words, it hurts
They creep right under my skin, it cuts so deep
Can’t you understand I don’t want battles, battles, battles?
And if lay them in my hand, I won’t fight battles, battles, battles
Tell me why we work so hard to break these bones
Can we try to lay down these sticks and stones?
Sticks and stones
We crash and fall together, so sad
We don’t remember
While we’re tearing us apart
But I can feel the cracks, the cracks in my heart
Can’t you understand I don’t want battles, battles, battles?
And if lay them in my hand, I won’t fight battles, battles, battles
Tell me why we work so hard to break these bones
Can we try to lay down these sticks and stones?
Sticks and stones
Why does it have to be so hard to surrender?
Well, we got nothing left, nothing left to lose, lose
Can’t you understand I don’t want battles, battles, battles?
And if lay them in my hand, I won’t fight battles, battles, battles
Tell me why we work so hard to break these bones
Can we try to lay down these sticks and stones?
Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
(Sticks and stones)
