Stryper - Sticks & Stones Lyrics






I’m a victim of your pain
But I have no one else to blame but me
There were choices guaranteed
I closed my eyes, and turned the other cheek

[Chorus:]
Sticks and Stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell

You don’t own me - I am free
I’ll take the high road and pray that it takes me
Company loved misery
Until it chose to change the scenery

[Chorus:]
Sticks and Stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
I’m a fighter on the mend
And I will rise above the world you spin
You fail, I wish you well

[Bridge:]
I’m letting go of you - I’m letting go of me
I’m letting go of all the things that hold me down emphatically
I’m letting go of time – I’m letting go of space
I’m letting go of all the waste I’ve carried to this place

[Chorus:]
Sticks and Stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me so they say
Oh well, yours hurt like hell
I’m a fighter to the end
I have rose above the world you spin
You fail, I wish you well

    O tom dessa música ficou muito alto, q pena que Michael só pode canta-la 1 vez no estúdio. Pq ao vivo fica muito alta pra cantar, mas gostei muito, top.

    Say what you want about this song it carries a message about the words we use and how we choose to use them to live life.

  10. j.... s....

    Awesome song!!! excellent!!!

  11. r.... s....

    ROCK FOR JESUS THATS THERE CALLING AND THEIR STICKING TRUE TO THAT SURRENDER  TO JESUS SOON VERY SOON EVERY PASSING DAY DRAWS NEAR TO SECOND COMING 777+777

  12. t.... r....

    this song is a bit cliche, but still rocks

    t.... r....

    Yeah,.Was unavoidable with a title like that,.But it's still pretty badazz

  13. S.... D....

    I think there better then ever. We change, they change but their soul, the soul in their music's still the same

  14. a.... ....

    I miss the Soldiers Under Command days when he actually sang and enunciated all his words and didnt just yell every line.

    a.... ....

    @all4Hisgloryalone Well maybe on the next album, they can hire you and your expertise, to avoid these type of problems.

    a.... ....

    @quintin tabura Good call Quintin!  We wouldn't want Stryper to make another Album without the guidance and blessings of all4Hisgloryalone,.What an absolute ,.Nevermind

    a.... ....

    @Paul Grady I actually like this album and his voice on it , also Micheal's new solo stuff including what ive heard of the Sweet/Lynch project.
    I apologize that i have an opinion about a trrack or two on this album. What a horrible person i must be.
     I will probably become a puppy killer.....
    Amazing how music fans on Youtube feel the need to personally attack people with opinions.....sad really

    a.... ....

    @all4Hisgloryalone Yeah,.Well let's hope PITA has been contacted,. Some songs call for yelling of LOUD and forceful singing,.Some don't,.Mike said he consciously decided NOT to write ballads for this new record,,.If you can't say something good don't say it at all?,.NOW you want to backtrack and tell us how much you like this stuff?,,.Well,.You could have stated that previously,.Nitpicker,.NO ONE is begging for you to listen,.Least of all Mike

    a.... ....

    Really people? God gave us our own opinions. Free will. Stop bashing each other, agree to disagree. "Sticks & Stones"... How appropriate. Jesus said we must love one another...

  15. E.... G....

    i love this song. classic

  16. T.... M....

    this song is sick. love it
