Words DO kill

Lets let that settle in your brain
For some would call me a LIAR
While others would say I'm a SAINT
Because if truly it was a LIE when you called him a WASTE OF SPACE
And that night he rid himself from this world for a new HUMAN BEING
Is that suicide or murder?
Or maybe it was when she made a MISTAKE
You told her she was WORTHLESS without a blink
You didn't recognize her heart SKIPPING a beat
And that night slowly falling into a deep SLEEP
Does that mean she just misunderstood your words?
Words DO kill!
Maybe not the way you would expect
Maybe not the way you intend
But when these words slip from the lips of you
Some wouldn't think twice to rid themselves from your presence
