A poem about the power of words...
Turn around, because you don't know what people are saying
Turn around, because you don't know what people are doing
Turn around, because there are people out there that just want to bring you down
I'd watch your back

Things are always being said
Things are always being done
And there are always people that want to bring you down
I'd watch your back

It hurts the most when it's a friend
Well, someone you thought was your friend
Someone you thought you could trust

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words are what really hurt me
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words are what really hurt me
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words are what really hurt me
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words are what really hurt me

And words will ALWAYS hurt
