I keep telling myself that it's all going to be okay, I keep saying  it's going to get better with each day. But its all a lie. How can I move on when I caused you to die?
Isn't it funny, How the same girls who just "turnt up" Can be the same girls, Who call a pregnant teen a "slut",   Or how the same guys, Who urge their buddies to go have sex,
What happened to back in the day, when the grown men would teach the younger ones to behave. But now we look around, and men of all ages and races have their pants to the ground. But thats my generation.

There she is The kid on her hip I hold her outstretched hand It's been too long, she says, A smile in her eyes I fake a smile back Inside I feel sorrow A hole in my heart
A baby bump at only sixteen, A fake smile that tries to cover the frowns And the regret that lies between The what ifs of that night with the alcohol that drowns.
She sees the smirks and hears the comments. The town's people don't know what caused it.
