Sticks and Stones

Sticks and stones may break my bones But your lies will cease to hurt me You think that you have finally won But don't think I'll let you burn me I'll sit and smile and make you think I know nothing of what you do But secretly I'll make you see The last laugh will be on you Sticks and stones may break my bones But your decet will hurt no more You won't see me cry a singel tear As I watch you walk out that door Don't think that you can go astray And plan on coming back I don't believe in forgiveness I'd rather have a heart attack My love for you has slowly died I buried it today I built a wall around my heart To keep all men away Sticks and stones may break my bones But words can break much more They can take your heart and leave the pieces Shattered all over the floor

Christina -It truly sucks when we are left feeling these things over another's actions - Life is often a heart wrenching experience that we simply just survive through - Hopefully the feature will be brighter for you -God Bless, MJ
