Words Songtext
von Emily Lynch

They come out fast
Like lightning from our tongues
We can′t take them back
Even when the morning comes
They always last
Especially the kind that cut real deep
They can bring laughter
Turn a frown into a smile
They can inspire
Keep you beaming for a while
They can sting
We might never realize they did
Sticks and stones might break our bones
But they're not what will cause the most
Hurt and pain and real regret


I′m sorry for the words I said
I never knew
I could bring your eyes to tears
Words I used would give life to all your fears
But I was armed and dangerous
Killing you one breath at a time
Sticks and stones might break our bones
But they're not what will cause the most
Hurt and pain and real regret
And I'm sorry for the words I said
I′m sorry for the way I hurt you
Wish I could go back and undo
All the awful things I did
And I′m sorry for the words I said
Yes, I'm sorry for the words I said
