My Day at Sandy Hook, Mommy

Locations

I'm here at school mommy,

I'm having so much fun.

I'm here at school mommy,

waiting to go outside and run.

 

I'm here in class mommy,

I miss you and Dad.

I'm here in class mommy,

but now I am sad.

 

I'm stuck at school mommy,

there's a man with a gun.

I'm stuck at school mommy,

there's no where to run.

 

I'm hiding in the closet mommy,

the teacher's shaking her head.

The man's in our room mommy,

and our teacher is dead.

 

He's opening the closet mommy,

I just want to cry.

He's opening the closet mommy,

I know I'm going to die.

 

He's aiming his gun mommy,

please don't be sad.

He's aiming his gun mommy,

I'll miss you and Dad.

 

I'm lying here bleeding mommy,

all my friends are dead.

I'm lying here bleeding mommy,

but I remember what you said.

 

You said you loved me mommy,

and Dad does too.

You said you loved me mommy,

and I know that you do.

 

I'm up in heaven mommy,

please don't cry.

I'm up in heaven mommy,

but this isn't goodbye.

 

I'll see you later mommy,

and I'll see Dad too.

I'll see you later mommy,

just remember I love you.
