From the recording If You Drive Me To Drink

Lyrics

VERSE
Words and actions not said or done
But they told you it was me
Even retracted down to none
Those words will always be

VERSE
Names and faces, times and places
Stories told among friends
Too many spaces in the social graces
Agony without end

CHORUS
In other’s words, nouns and verbs, I am to blame
In other’s words, nouns and verbs, it’s just a game
Tell me why they feel the need to lie
There’s so much hurt, there’s so much hurt
There’s so much hurt in other’s words

VERSE
Sticks and stones can break my bones
But words can hurt me, too
Layin’ blame just fans the flames
Wish I knew what I could do

Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
Words, angry words, come always with a price
One word too many is never very nice
Words, so many words, opinions becoming fact
But words never spoken need no taking back

Repeat CHORUS
