Oh, the light sleeper, the street sweeper, the promise breaker, the promise keeper, the
astronaut, the acrobat, the underdog who's coming back, maybe Oakdawn Phonics, or Mary
Jane, or Coca-Cola, or cocaine, we're just different, kinda the same, yeah, sticks and
stones can break you, but words are medicine, words are medicine, and I'm black and blue,
I'm broken and bruised, I hear your voice again, words are medicine, the beautician,
the mortician, the blindsided, the night vision, the baptized, the chicken fried, the low tide,
the unforgiving, for the girl who's lost in romance novels, the guy who sees through whiskey
goggles, we're just different, kinda the same, yeah, sticks and stones can break you, but
words are medicine, words are medicine, and you're black and blue, you're broken and bruised,
just hear my voice again, words are medicine, I do what I will, I believe in you still, I have a
dream, imagine a shiny city on a hill, I'm sorry, forgive me, I love you, I love you, words are
medicine, words are medicine, and you're black and blue, you're broken and bruised, just hear my
voice again, words are medicine, words are medicine, we're black and blue, we're broken and bruised,
I hear your song, my friend, words are medicine, words are medicine, words are medicine, words are
medicine
words are medicine
