What would happen if I clear data on my messaging app?

I have an Android. I have way too many messages on my messaging app, and when I try to delete them my phone freezes up and it won't delete. So I was thinking on clearing data but i'm afraid it will delete everything off my phone. I just need a way to delete my messages without it freezing up on me. ALSO whenever I clicked on Clear Data it says "All of this application's data will be deleted permanently. This includes files, settings, accounts, databases, and so on." What does that mean?

    Ok you may need to delete them one at a time. If its not allowing you to clear them all. What that mean is that your deleting your account. And you will need to set up a new account, which might be the only alternative in your case. But try deleting them one at a time first. Try seeing if your on that app in the message screen tap the menu. And see if there is a delete option, if there is you can check the ones you need to delete. I'm really sorry your having such a hard time.
