Tears roll down my cheeks,
My heart heavy with guilt
Never did it cross my mind
To think of her and be her only friend
If only I had given her a smile....
And as for him...
That should've been me
Lying in the pool of blood
If only I had given her a smile....
I count them--
One, six, thirteen, more?
What have I done?
THe gun might as well have been in my hands,
Pulling teh trigger, trying to find a way out
If only I had given her a smile....
Sitting at my desk, watching kids die
Hearing the guns go off
My heart sinks with pain
I didn't want to be here, no one did
We all saw our lives flash before our eyes,
Some of us unable to change
Whatever they saw
If only I had given her a smile....
Everyone says it's not my fault
I wasn't holding the gun
But they just don't understand
That I once was that girl
But someone gave me a smile
And thanks to them,
I know of life and happiness
But now she'll never know
If only I had given her a smile.....
