Sticks and stones
Won’t break my bones
And words will never hurt me
You, you work so hard
To play the part
But I see straight through your house of cards
The walls so thin
They’re caving in
So come on, tell me again who’s
Powerless, powerless
You told me I’m powerless
It ain’t adding up, adding up
Your story ain’t adding up
Who’s powerless, powerless?
It’s not me, it never was
And I’m rising up
Oh, oh
I hope, I hope it burns
I’m gonna teach you lessons you never learned
You wanna break a heart that is stronger than your own
You’re gonna need more than sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Won’t break my bones
And words will never hurt me
I, I won’t back down
So run your mouth
Let’s see how quickly your breath runs out
If you want war
I’ll give you more
So come on, tell me again who’s
Powerless, powerless
You told me I’m powerless
It ain’t adding up, adding up
Your story ain’t adding up
Who’s powerless, powerless?
It’s not me, it never was
And I’m rising up
Oh, oh
I hope, I hope it burns
I’m gonna teach you lessons you never learned
You wanna break a heart that is stronger than your own
You’re gonna need more than sticks and stones
I know, I know you’ll see
You’ll never have the height to measure up to me
You wanna crawl your way out the grave you made your home
You’re gonna need more than sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Won’t break my bones
Sticks and stones
And words will never hurt me
Oh no, there you go again
Little boy playing a man
Try to fool me, but you can’t (Ooh)
Oh no, there you go again
Begging for your innocence
I won’t ever make amends (Ooh)
I hope, I hope it burns
I’m gonna teach you lessons you never learned
You wanna break a heart that is stronger than your own
You’re gonna need more than sticks and stones
I know, I know you’ll see
You’ll never have the height to measure up to me
You wanna crawl your way out the grave you made your home
You’re gonna need more than sticks and stones
Other lyrics by Lauren Spencer Smith:
IF KARMA DOESN’T GET YOU (I WILL)
Small town boy with the big time ego (Ooh) Act so tough and you don’t think we know (Ooh) Stole my heart just to leave me bleeding (Ooh) Now the hole in my chest …
Last First Christmas
True love was something that I put up on my wish list And this year, you could say that Santa Claus was listening Every 25th and 12th they just melt away like snow Now …
Lighting the flame
When I met you I was young Thought that anything could happen Said you’d give me the world While you dressed me in plastic pearls When I met you I was fun Now …
Long Story Short
Oh, I Knew it was you, it’s that simple Fell for your eyes and your dimples Love at first sight So I Lay all my cards on the table Now that I found someone faithful …
Looking Up
I said goodbye at fifteen and I didn’t know it meant I’d be crying in my twenties, still not knowing where you went How long is forever ‘cause …
