The Dreaming Lyrics
"Sticks and Stones"

Time is like a flower
Secret garden buried in my mind
Nurtured in the shadows
Growing into love just givin time

Your sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words tear me apart
Your sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words will break my heart in two

Every time you hurt me
You swear you only do it out of love
But every word is poison
Every broken promise etched in blood

Your sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words tear me apart
Your sticks and stones
May break my bones
But yours will break my heart in two

Every time I fail you
I carve another story in my arm
You could read my future
A tragedy is written in the scars

Your sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words tear me apart
Your sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words will break my heart
Your sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words tear me apart
Your sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words will break my heart in two
