Words Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'd give anything
But I won't give up on you
I'd say anything, but not goodbye
I will run with your changes
And I'm always on your side
And there's not a word that I've ever heard
That will make me change my mind

[Chorus]
Words, they'll try to shake you
Don't let them break you
Or stop your world from turning
When words keep you from feeling good
Use them as firewood and let 'em burn

[Verse 2]
Like stones in your pocket
People try to wear you down
Someone always wants to take the love you've found
So let's run with these changes
And I want you by my side
And there's not a word that I've ever heard
That could make me change my mind

[Chorus]
Words, they'll try to shake you
Don't let them break you
Or stop your world from turning
When words keep you from feeling good
Use them as firewood and let 'em burn
[Post-Chorus]
Let them burn
Let them burn

[Bridge]
Underneath every word
Somebody's heart's been broken
With or without words
We try to forgive

[Chorus]
Words, they'll try to shake us
Don't let them break us
Or stop our world from turning
When words keep you from feeling good
Use them as firewood and let 'em burn

[Chorus]
Words, they'll try to shake you
Don't let them break you
Or stop your world, stop your world from turning 'round
When words keep you from feeling good
Use them as firewood and let 'em burn

[Post-Chorus]
Let them burn
Let them burn

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
