​Words, only words 
Only words, not thinking that they might
just hurt, oh but they're only words

There's this lady I know 
who keeps talking
when there's no one around
she starts walking

She goes into town 
where everybody laughs
as she reaches down 
looking through the trash

Everybody says "She crazy"
so she's gotta be
but I think she might be saner than
anyone surrounding me
​
'cause when you listen carefully
you'll know what is on her mind
while others keep on talking
but only seem to hide behind these

Words, only words 
Only words, not thinking that they might
just hurt, oh but they're only words

​Now there's these people I know
who keep talking
when there's no one around
you'll hear them judging

Even the best of friends
they'll try to put each other down
speaking out behind their backs 'bout 
how they should turn their life around

But oh, you see
they mean so well
they'll say it's cause they care
but don't you call 'em out upon their words
nah 
don't you even dare

'cause they don't really mean to say
those nasty things they say
but they don't seem to realize
the crazy game they play with their

​Words, only words 
Only words, not thinking that they might
just hurt, oh but they're only words

come on ya'll
​Words?
Only words?! 

Only words
not thinking that they might
just hurt
Oh but they're only
words
