The words I spoke were like bullets to the chest
Each syllable piercing through your bullet proof vest
A game of Russian Roulette and I was the lucky one
Your eyes bulged as I spoke the words that stung
The blood began to pour and I stared in those eyes
Wishing I could take it all back and say that I lied
But it was true, honest and real
And it shot you unconscious with no chance to heal
I killed you inside and your tears flowed
All the while I prayed that I don't reap what I just sowed
Maybe I will be forgiven for this catastrophe
For it was only a comeback from when you laughed at me
Taunted me, bullied me like a helpless child
And I said what I knew would kill you inside
Murder she wrote sticks and stones
The words that beat and broke every bone
