lyrics
Sticks and Stones
You know the love that I have for you
It can’t be sold, sold or stolen
It’s like a thought that never leaves my mind
It’s beautiful
You have a face that tells stories of a troubled place
A black hole, a lost soul
A dream that was woken up
You’re my brother, you’re my love, you’re my sweetheart my blood
But each time that you bleed my feet get icy cold
Even though it’s going to hurt you
Even though it’s bound to kill you
You stick it in and you feed its hunger
Hunger for your blood
Sticks and stones will break your bones
But it’s the words that hurt the most
So I won’t fight you and I won’t beg
Just as long as I know, you know, I’m here
You’re my brother, you’re my love, you’re my sweetheart my blood
But each time that you bleed my feet get icy cold
Even though it’s going to hurt you
Even though it’s bound to kill you
You stick it in and you feed its hunger
Hunger for your blood
You know the love that I have for you
It can’t be sold, sold or stolen
It’s like a thought that never leaves my mind
It’s beautiful
You have a face that tells stories of a troubled place
A black hole, a lost soul
A dream that was woken up
You’re my brother, you’re my love, you’re my sweetheart my blood
But each time that you bleed my feet get icy cold
Even though it’s going to hurt you
Even though it’s bound to kill you
You stick it in and you feed its hunger
Hunger for your blood
Sticks and stones will break your bones
But it’s the words that hurt the most
So I won’t fight you and I won’t beg
Just as long as I know, you know, I’m here
You’re my brother, you’re my love, you’re my sweetheart my blood
But each time that you bleed my feet get icy cold
Even though it’s going to hurt you
Even though it’s bound to kill you
You stick it in and you feed its hunger
Hunger for your blood
