about

This is my first ever completely original song, I wrote the instrumental and the lyrics and performed them both.

...On my ukulele.

Enjoy!

lyrics

INTRO
I'm gonna start a war, you're gonna say to not
I'm gonna fight some more, and you're gonna make me stop
I'm gonna try to help, the only way I know
But you're gonna break my heart, and I'm gonna break my bones

Chorus
Because sticks and stones will break my bones but words are gonna break my heart
Sticks and stones will break my bones but your words are gonna break my heart

VERSE1
If violence aint the anwser to the things youre askin me
Then I guess the simple truth is you're askin the wrong things
I'm the opposite of everything you wanted in a man
but if your man Wont fight for you can he call himself a man?

If the problem you present to me cant be solved with a fist
Then I guess that in the book of life, there's something there I missed
I'm not saying that I'm strong at all, in fact I'm rather weak
But if I can't take a punch, then I don't have you, and then I'd have nothing

CHORUS
Because sticks and stones will break my bones but words are gonna break my heart
Sticks and stones will break my bones but your words are gonna break my heart

VERSE2:
if I don't show you're worth the fight, how will you know I hurt inside
If you can't tell, that I'm not well, what can I do, to simply show you
That I'm not, good with words, but I would fight, the whole earth for you
It's not that I'm, the violent type, but I just think, that I adore you

More than anyone has ever, I know we belong together
I don't believe you'll want to stay gone, once you see the mess I'm made of
But if you know you have to leave, cause God doesn't think you're right for me well
Thats allright, I'll be fine, I'm okay, I'm not hurt cause...

CHORUS
sticks and stones will break my bones but words are gonna break my heart
Sticks and stones will break my bones but your words are gonna break my heart
