Nothing more than words

Please don't say you live a lie,
(For then I am part of that lie)
Their words I've no wish to hear.
(for then I am truly without a purpose)
now I know I've told the truth
(for I have)
it hurts more than the knife

remember when you felt that blade
(surely you do, you cried into its blood)
the deep pang of steel
(an anguish deeper than you knew)
like words from a silvered tongue
(you told me of your thoughts)
cutting deep, as far as it would go
(far deeper than you could see.)
with nothing more than words.
