Birthday IOU - All

I.O.U.

so many things

I.O.U.

everything

But I can’t repay you

And it’s too late to save you

There really wasn’t a choice

Seventeen was just too young

I couldn’t hear your voice

I couldn’t feel your living

I.O.U.

so many things

I.O.U.

everything

But I can’t repay you

And it’s too late to save you

My son, my mistake

(I.O.U. so many things)

My son, my mistake

I know you could have been a girl baby

Now you can’t be anything

We needed you to prove our love

We used you, then we killed you

I.O.U.

so many things

I.O.U.

everything

But I can’t repay you

And it’s too late to save you

My son, my mistake

(I.O.U. so many things)

My son, my mistake

Right to life?

Who decides?

Is there wrong and right?

When Mom and Dad treat you so bad

We made our own decisions

No one else’s business

We’ll learn to live with our mistakes

Live by learning from our mistake, my mistake

I.O.U.

so many things

I.O.U.

everything

But I can’t repay you

And it’s too late to save you

My son, my mistake

My son, my mistake

(I.O.U. so many things)

My son, my mistake

(I.O.U. so many things)

My son

(I.O.U. so many things)
