Warpaint covers your face
Concealing all of your devilish shapes
In this game of guilt and deceit
There's no thought spent on honesty
Just plenty o' blame to pass around
You wear me down I wear you out
Defying you is all that counts
I wear you down you wear me out
Sticks and stones
May break your bones
But only words can hurt you
Puncture wounds
And bullet holes
But only words can really make you bleed
Show me your scars and I'll add some
Don't fool yourself, no one makes it out unharmed
You say you've known pain and then some
But in the end we all are plenty scarred
We have to fight through bad intentions
Mind tricks and crooked games
Bruised and broken, counting our blessings
I've got some fight left in my veins
Sticks and stones
May break your bones
But only words can hurt you
Puncture wounds
And bullet holes
But only words can really make you bleed
It's all about taking more from you
It's all about taking more from you
It's all about taking more from you
Than you can take from me
You rob me
Of all that I've got
You show your true face
Once the warpaint wears off
You kill me
You're out for my blood
You show your true face
Once the warpaint wears off
