They should have shut down all the streets
|
¡®cause that innocent kid shouldn¡¯t been there.
|
But not a single emphasy, all the school is closed
|
And the roads we drove on all night,
|
Lot of people kept in hand a cry
|
That went on for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles.
|
|
They should have shot down all the streets
|
All the paper is plastered with tributes.
|
We should¡¯ve ask for privacy that we understand
|
If it¡¯s something to share their pain,
|
We would ask to grieve this in our mind way
|
And they should have asked again and again and again.
|
|
They should have shut down all the streets
|
Of the Brooklin¡¯s pile of the doorstep.
|
The pages filled with crayon hearts
|
That are second great,
|
Classic made a rescue that day
|
Because the teacher had to give them some small way
|
And I would have many ways to understand.
|
|
They should have shut down all the streets.
