Verse 1 You take the poison, hold it deep inside You don't care that tomorrow you might die And all the things you've aspired to have left the door And all the loved ones you had are gone for sure Chorus Don't let this life bring you down They're only sticks and stones And you've been there before Don't fear the after-shakes you'll get Just think of all of the regrets you'll have Later down the line Down the line (3x) Verse 2 Well I know she hurt you bad And it seems too hard to mend Well I've been there before girl And it will happen once again That is life as tragic as it may seem But things will get better I swear if you just let it be Chorus Don't let this life bring you down They're only sticks and stones And you've been there before Don't fear the after-shakes you'll get Just think of all of the regrets you'll have Later down the line Down the line (3x) Verse 3 You're so beautiful why can't you see You can be anything you want to be So why do you choose this empty life full of misery You just shoot it all away, shoot away all your dreams Chorus Don't let this life bring you down They're only sticks and stones And you've been there before Don't fear the after-shakes you'll get Just think of all of the regrets you'll have Later down the line Down the line (3x) Ooooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, Ooooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, ahhh, ha ah.
