lyrics

Intro:
Did you ever stop to think
A few words you speak
Could leave just one laughing
And a million others broken?

I hate it, all it does is destroy lives
And if it wasn't a problem
I wouldn't be singing this rhyme

Verse 1:
Let me tell you a tale
Of a boy that was fresh in high school
Full of high hopes and high dreams
He just wanted to fit in like we all do

He began to despise school
Broken by the words they would speak
The discredit started to sink
And lower his self esteem

He could barely stand on his own two feet
Broken and torn
He looked in the mirror screaming these words

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me
But why do I still feel like this?
Why do I still feel like this?

Chorus:
I see it everyday
Taking advantage of someone
Who can't defend themselves
It's okay to have a joke
It's okay to leave them alone
But maybe you should think twice
Twice
Twice

Verse 2:
Most people would see it happen
And just let him suffer
Too scared to speak up
While all these cowards creep up

Cursing and pushing him
To the ground
To the point
Where he doesn't even make a sound

As he begins to weep
He prays for an angel to sweep
Over, pick him up and start a new day

Just when he thought
It would never end
A girl came and approached to breathe hope to him

I saw you getting pushed around
And I won't stand to see
Cause I don't want to see you
Throw your life away

Scream these words
Loud and clear
We won't live our lives in fear
We will stand up

Chorus:
I see it everyday
Taking advantage of someone
Who can't defend themselves
It's okay to have a joke
It's okay to leave them alone
But maybe you should think twice
Twice
Twice
