Sticks & Stones Lyrics

My flesh and bones

Turn to sticks and stones

I know I'll never be the same

It still hurts me anyway

I've got my eyes sewn shut

Thinkin' bout how I worry way too much

What was left unsaid

Never mattered in the end

I made decisions based on lies and pretend

Will they bury me?

My flesh and bones

Turn to sticks and stones

I know I'll never be the same

But it still hurts me anyway

Try to pick up the pieces of my life

Prying eyes never satisfied

I couldn't please the ones who mattered most

So instead I turned into a ghost

And as i drift into the sky

I say my last goodbye

Left behind the tale is told

Carry me into the unknown

My flesh and bones

Turn to sticks and stones

I know I'll never be the same

But it still hurts me anyway

Tell me that I'm losing touch

Tell me that I shouldn't say too much

I didn't think you would change

(But it still hurts me anyway)

This constant illusion

We're living in

A fallacy so divine

Where time just wears you thin

Looking back to where I was

Throwing caution to the wind

I never really thought I'd make it

To the place where I know I'm destined

My flesh and bones

Turn to sticks and stones

I know I'll never be the same

I know we learn from our mistakes

Lift me off the ground

(We learn from our mistakes)

Take me over now

(But they still hurt us anyway)

Tell me that I'm losing touch

Tell me that I shouldn't say too much

(I didn't think you would change)

I never really thought I'd make it

(But we learn from our mistakes)

To the place where I know I'm destined
