I did a stupid thing
I could've killed that girl
Her father spoke no English
But his hate was plain and I can't take it back
I can never go back
I didn't look both ways
When turning right on red
A split second's my undoing
I offered everything but I can't take it back
I can never go back
I can never go back
I can never go back
He had no sympathy
He had no sympathy
For my quiet tears of shame

No no she said to him
I hate hospitals
I got finals in the morning
I am alright I think
I can't take it back
I can never go back
I can never go back
I can never go back

I did a stupid thing
I did a stupid thing
I did a stupid thing
I did a stupid thing
I did a stupid thing
I did a stupid thing
I did a stupid thing
I did a stupid thing
