Who would imagine that one could destroy a life with just one word
If you don't believe me then we should pull back the curtain and take a look
So choose your words right, cause they hold the power of death and life
Be careful what you say there's so many dreaming for a day
When what he says and what she says isn't meant to tear apart a soul
Because we're gathering all the pieces of broken hearts that are shattered on the floor
Words cut so much deeper than you know
It's the power of words
She had plans to end her night with a bottle of pills and a note goodbye
But she ran into a boy who took the time to share with her words that changed her life
So use your words right, within them is power to save a life
Be careful what you say, there's so many dreaming for the day
When what he says and what she says isn't meant to tear apart a soul
Because we're gathering all the pieces of broken hearts that are shattered on the floor
Words cut so much deeper than you know
It's the power of words
Be careful of the words you speak
Once those words have been released you can never bring them back
They can heal or hurt
Be careful of the words you speak
Once those words have been released you can never bring them back
(Spoken)
They can heal the heart, restore the soul
And words if not used in proper ways, can leave a scar that never fades
Sharp like a double edged sword, or a healing honey, a morning rain to soothe the sting, wash away the pain"
So choose your words right, cause you have the power to change a life!
When what he says and what she says isn't meant to tear apart a soul
Because we're gathering all the pieces of broken hearts that are shattered on the floor
Words cut so much deeper than you know
It's the power of words
