Watch your step with a whisper wind
It's a poison well where the hearts begin to fend
Distorted words like a crooked line
Turning the gold of a true-born heart into grime
It makes you hate a heart that's clean and bright
And gives a liar a crown of light
Oh, beware the talk that twists the truth
It's the wrecking ball of youth and truth
Trust will fade like a ghost in the Sun
Leaving the work of the heart undone
Leaving the heart undone
Words have power, don't you get the cost?
In the halls of rumor, everything is lost
Seek the truth like a diamond in the rough
One straight word is always enough
Go to the one, look them in the eye
And let the dark of the gossip die
Oh, beware the talk that twists the truth
It's the wrecking ball of youth and truth
Trust will fade like a ghost in the Sun
Leaving the work of the heart undone
Leaving the heart undone
Gossip builds a wall of stone
In a cycle where you're all alone
But a word of truth can tear it down
And take the fake right off their crown
Words have power, choose them well
Don't let a lie cast a shadow, a spell
Seek the face of the one you know
