Take me home
Take me home
To a place where I'm safe
Where the walls don't seem to close
Take me far
So far away
To a place where I'm safe
Anywhere outside my brain
Take me home
Shh
Everyone quiet down
Hide in the corner get on the ground
There's a shooter with a lot of rounds
And he grew up a problem child
His parents went out of town
Took the gun in his fathers house
Yeah I hear the sirens howl
But the police are not around
No they're waiting outside
How many will now die
And really we all know
That it won't be the last time
This is America now
It's terrible how
We will allow
A parent to bury a child
Time and again
It's like a merry- go- round
Another mass shooting
On the news
We'll forget about 'em soon every last student
But I represent the kids in the classroom
Growing up
No never had the chance to it
I'm the person you left
Hiding under her desk
When it's certainty death
Had her path ruined
While the politicians are a sad excuse
Someone save the kids
From these bad humans
Take me home
Take me home
To a place where I'm safe
Where the walls don't seem to close
Take me far
So far away
To a place where I'm safe
Anywhere outside my brain
Take me home
Dear God
It's me again
As I come to you
For one last time
I know we don't talk much
So I don't expect you to grant my
One request
Though I confess
It's hard for me to not ask why
Why we losing so many kids
If you exist
Show me a sign
I wanna believe you without a doubt
But I feel like they've been forgot about
Where were you when they were screaming out
And where were you when they were bleeding out
Will you take them there
Far away from this place they're scared
Hiding in this classroom so long
That it feels like the walls don't hold no air
Cause time's up
Kids start running
They dive duck and go find cover
While the suits and ties up in Washington
Get their blood money and then hide from us
Fake tears man I call bluffing
We got kids dying but don't do nothing
Cause to them the dead are just another number
Man I hate to say another shootings coming but it is
Take me home
Take me home
To a place where I'm safe
Where the walls don't seem to close
Take me far
So far away
To a place where I'm safe
Anywhere outside my brain
Take me home
