Whyd you take the gun
And fire five shots at your own father
And then become stunned

And take the gun
to take your own life
Why didnt you let anyone know
About your inner strife

Why didnt you tell all of you friends
let them know you were in pain
You couldve told someone
There is no shame

You took the shotgun
and with it two people died
You shouldve seen it today
When all of the people cried

No one knew
and now your dead
And leaving thoughts and questions
in everyone's head

We all knew you were confused
doing all the things that were bad
But we didnt know
that you were this mixed up and sad

Whyd you do it
take a gun and cause so much pain
You left us all with so much grief
and nothing to explain

Why Did You Do It?
