9. Sticks & Stones (4:10)
I'm a victim of your pain
But I have no one else to blame but me
Oh, no
There were choices guaranteed
I closed my eyes and turned the other cheek
The other cheek
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me, so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
They hurt like hell
You don't own me! I am free
I'll take the high road and pray that it takes me
Oh, it takes me
Company loved misery
Until it chose to change the scenery
Oh, the scenery
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me, so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
I'm a fighter on the mend
and I will rise above the world you spin
You fail, I wish you well
I wish you well
I'm letting go of you - I'm letting go of me
I'm letting go of all the things that hold me down emphatically
I'm letting go of time - I'm letting go of space
I'm letting go of all the waste I've carried to this place
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me, so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
I'm a fighter on the mend
and I will rise above the world you spin
You fail, I wish you well
I wish you well (x3)
But I have no one else to blame but me
Oh, no
There were choices guaranteed
I closed my eyes and turned the other cheek
The other cheek
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me, so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
They hurt like hell
You don't own me! I am free
I'll take the high road and pray that it takes me
Oh, it takes me
Company loved misery
Until it chose to change the scenery
Oh, the scenery
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me, so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
I'm a fighter on the mend
and I will rise above the world you spin
You fail, I wish you well
I wish you well
I'm letting go of you - I'm letting go of me
I'm letting go of all the things that hold me down emphatically
I'm letting go of time - I'm letting go of space
I'm letting go of all the waste I've carried to this place
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me, so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
I'm a fighter on the mend
and I will rise above the world you spin
You fail, I wish you well
I wish you well (x3)
