I get in the car, another tragic disaster
But I’m safe where I am, yet another is captured
The traffic is stopped
People just stare
Another alert
Does the kid have a prayer?
Life is not fair

It’s hard to look outside my door
With all the news reports and more
Yet I will do my part and stay on alert
For all the kids out there who are gettin’ hurt
It could have happened to me
Can you make me believe
This could have a happy end
‘Cuz I am one of them

I try to grow up, but I am chased by my fears
It could happen to me, and I worry in tears
Reports of the girl
Makin’ me scared
Let off to die and
Why was I spared?
Life is not fair
It’s hard to look outside my door
With all the news reports and more
Yet I will do my part and stay on alert
For all the kids out there who are gettin’ hurt
It could have happened to me
Can you make me believe
This could have a happy end
‘Cuz I am one of them

I am one of them, am one of them
I am one of them, am one of them
I am one of them, am one of them
I wish I could bring back all of them
