If I live through high school
Hard contemporary folk and acoustic rock
Lyrics
Shooting down at the school today
Not so many as the last time
A few more dead and we would have made the news
School will be closed for a couple of days
While they scrub the walls and redecorate
With thoughts and prayers plastered over the bullet holes
Chorus:
And I'm sorry I got blood on my clothes
And my homework is late again
Falling behind, I just can't seem to concentrate
I swear I'm trying to do my best
Stay focused, forget the rest
And if I live through high school I just might graduate
Can we leave a little bit early today
I've gotta go the long way can't cross the tape
And I don't wanna be late for the assembly
Frankie wont be coming around
I 'd like to send flowers but the florist's all out
I heard they're carving a stone in his memory
Chorus
Practiced the drill in class today
Some girls screamed but I was ok
Skipped a test in History to evacuate
I made it to the cupboard and my teacher smiled
Extra credit for staying alive
History will repeat if you just sit and wait
Chorus
