Screams through the hall,
Blood everywhere
The sound of footsteps running
From the boy who thinks its fair

Why is he doing this?
Doesn't he know it's wrong?
You can't come in and hurt who you see
Why can't we all just get along?

Everyone is getting weaker 
The hours are getting longer
But it all gets better, that I promise you
Everybody will soon grow stronger

He probably thought he could run
Yeah he thought he could get away 
You can't be harmful to 1200 people 
And think that you're not gonna pay

He's sitting in that juvenile center
I wonder if he's ashamed
Did he really think he could do all this
And play it like it was a video game?

This could happen to any school
So don't think it's only you
Havent you seen all the horrible events?
Hell, just take a look at the news 

It won't always be like this
Those bad memories, I promise, will fade
FR is strong, that I know is true 
They all come together and pray

Everyone's gonna be terrified 
When they go back to school on Monday
But It'll be okay, take a deep breath
Just close your eyes and pray

God's gonna watch over you
He already did that tragic Wednesday morn
1,200 kids, not a single one dead
That's grace shining bright from the Lord

Don't be afraid, no don't you worry
The pain can't last forever 
So sleep easy tonight, Franklin Regional
Close your eyes and it will all get better
Dedicated to Franklin Regional High School.
