Die By The Pen Lyrics - Singles - Jumbo Train

Die by the pen 

It's as sharp as a sword 

Painful cutting words 

We have ignored 

Choose your words wisely 

Can't take 'em back 

You can weave a blanket of comfort 

Or launch a verbal attack 

Words can build them up 

Or bring them down 

That child's bright future 

Now buried in the ground 

We're all too skinny, or we're all too fat 

Words hit our ears like a baseball bat 

Get a job, what's wrong with you? Are you stupid? 

Is there nothing you can do? 

Try... you're so nice, and how are you? 

You look great today, thanks for being you 

I just had to say "hey", 

And let you know I like you... 

Can't say anything nice 

Don't say it at all 

You could pluck that shaking leaf 

Could cause it to fall 

We can open up out mouths 

And try to make a sound 

That wraps around that crumbling soul 

Before it hits the ground 

Die by the pen 

It's as sharp as a sword 

Painful cutting words 

We have ignored 

Die by the pen 

It's as sharp as a sword 

Painful cutting words 

Shouldn't have ignored
