WORDS

DO YOU KNOW WORDS CAN CUT LIKE A KNIFE
THEY CAN RUIN SOMEONES LIFE
YES, WORDS ARE POWERFUL THINGS
THE WOUNDS THEY CAUSE REALLY STINGS
WORDS CAN CAUSE A LOT OF PAIN
WHEN OUR WORDS HURT WHAT DO WE GAIN
WE NEED TO USE OUR WORDS FOR GOOD
JUST LIKE GOD SAID WE SHOULD
WE NEED TO WATCH WHAT WE SAY
FOR ONE DAY WE WILL HAVE TO PAY
