Glass on the pavement and sirens the only sound
As a heart no longer beat as you lay there on the ground
Now something that was lost, may never yet be found...
And how clearly I see...that it should have yet been me.
You're laying now in satin, there's flowers all beside you
Your light extinguished out by the darkness that you knew
And heart are grieving, bleeding, from burdened souls on church pews
I bet they would agree....that it should have yet been me.
One life for another, if I could take your place...
Give you another chance, all your steps to retrace....
For to bring peace within these walls, I simply need erase....
Removing the debris... it should have yet been me.
Yet you lay there now, your lungs no longer breathing....
And yet I stay here now, where angers never leaving...
It's not what I want, for peace my heart is grieving...
And how clearly now I see, that it should have yet been me.
