Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you could never hurt me
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you could never hurt me

This is the part when I shut you out
Trying so hard to shut my mouth
Why do I feel drunk with love
You're right, it's time to pull the plug

If they never get close to you
Then it's never gonna hurt
If they never get close to you
(Get close to you, get close to you)

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you could never hurt me
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you could never hurt me
How do you stay beautiful in this ugly world
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you know how to kill me, girl

This is the part when I let you go
Put these walls up
They fall like dominoes
I just smile and pretend
Why can't I be fine as friends

If they never get close to you
Then it's never gonna hurt
If they never get close to you
(Get close to you, get close to you)

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you could never hurt me
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you could never hurt me
How do you stay beautiful in this ugly world
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you know how to kill me, girl

If they never get close to you
Then it's never gonna hurt
If they never get close to you
(Get close to you, get close to you)

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you could never hurt me
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you could never hurt me
How do you stay beautiful in this ugly world
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you know how to kill me, girl
