Words That Hurt Aren't Mine

No, sad-looking lady,
leave out you pathetic pity;
I left someone for your sake...
she had lips of honey:
wasn't it a big mistake?

Words that hurt aren't mine,
you shouted them too aloud,
taking my anger in stride;
I didn't really understand
the frantic behavior of a swine
that cried out, igniting the fire!    

No, vengeful lady,
come to grips with reality;
hurting me is cruelty...
this feeling triggers more hostility!
No, vengeful lady...
I don't approve pf your insanity!

Words that hurt aren't mine,
an examine of conscience.
is needed on your part;
words that hurt aren't mine! 
Get rid of pretense  just once:
whatever you say is not smart!

Those words that hurt aren't mine,
they're dumb and out of line!
