Sticks & Stones
Shot down, by your bullets
They shatter, my faith and my bones
If you would listen, your words they hurt
They creep right under my skin
They cut so deep, oh
Can’t you understand I don’t want battles, battles, battles
And if you let them in my hands I won’t fight battles, battles, battles
I wont fight battles, battles, battles
Oh 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 dont remember
Why were tearing us apart
When I can feel the cries, the cries in my heart,
Can’t you understand, I don’t want battles, battles, battles
And if you lay them in my hands
I wont fight battles, battles, battles
Oh 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 just surrender
When we got nothing left, nothing left to lose,
Can’t you understand I don’t want battles, battles, battles
And if you lay them in my hands
I wont fight battles, battles, battles
Oh tell me why
We work so hard to break these bones
Can we try, to lay down
These sticks and stones,
Sticks and stones
