There's so many people dying
You complain about your situation
What about me?
Half the world wouldn't know
What it's like to lose your seed
Maybe you can understand

(How I feel)
I cannot reach that soul
You're probably watching over us
Know that I think of you
It's killing me

The guilt has lasted years, still cry
It was all planned out
Why was I last to know?
Don't you trust in me?
The table's cold, it's too late
To make up for these mistakes
Maybe you can't understand

(How I feel)
I cannot reach that soul
You're probably watching over us
Know that I think of you
It's killing me
(How I feel)
If I would have known
I can't say what I would have done
If you could forgive
I'd like to rest with you someday

(How I feel)
I cannot reach that soul
You're probably watching over us
Know that I think of you
It's killing me
(How I feel)
If I would have known
I can't say what I would have done
If you could forgive
I'd like to rest with you someday

    General Comment:Sex is not JUST SEX!!! It's sometimes making love. It just depends on how you use it. I myself use it for love and never lust. If I am going to give a piece of myself to someone it's goig to be for love weather I plan to marry them or not. Duh! People do use condoms...it's called an "OOPS!" We all make mistakes but I feel like a baby is never one of them. It is a time for a beginning. An abortion is never the answer. I believe that it's a gift of love. If the relationship never works out then you can at least say you did it for love. The lyrics are awesome I listen to it over and over again. I never cry probably because he knows that its sad and how much he will always miss "what could have been" but he will rest with his baby one day. Sometimes moving on is better...it's the only way you can "live"...So I say Adema is not just another band with another song. Maybe there will be justice for this kind of thing. For now we will just have to fight as hard as we can because we are not just fighting the law, but we are also fighting the Constitution.

    General Comment:I have never heard this song before, just read the lyrics and I'm honestly not sure I could listen to it without crying. I almost did just reading the words. It's so beautiful and sweet, but sad at the same time. Obviously about a man who learns that his girlfriend had an abortion without informing him first and his feelings of sorrow at never being able to see his child be born. So so sad... Reminds me of people I know who have lost babies in other ways and one girl at my church youth group who had an abortion. She said once that she had an abortion when she was like fourteen I believe and now she regrets it and feels really bad about killing her kid. The other two situations that came to mind were my mom losing her unborn baby at fifteen and my niece losing hers at eighteen. I wish they'd hurry up and make abortion illegal. If you're going to be stupid enough to have unprotected sex then it's your own fault if the girl gets pregnant. If you don't want kids, don't have sex 'cuz the chances of something happening are pretty good even with the pill and the condom and all that shit they say will protect you. I want a kid more than anything, but I'm only almost seventeen and I know this is not a good time for me to be having one so I'm extremely hesitant about having sex. Besides I'm afraid my mom would make me have an abortion and I don't want that. I want this song now. I'm gonna make my boyfriend download it for me.

    General Comment:What I got from the song is that a guy found out that the girl he was with had an abortion without telling him she was and now he is feeling the loss of his child that will never be born. He constantly thinks about his unborn child and he is suffering from it.

    General Comment:This song came out when I was pregnant with my oldest son. Because of my situation then I had really thought about having an abortion. But after hearing that song and crying to it, I decided against the abortion and I am really thankful for it. Now, four kids later, the song still reminds me of the terrible mistake I almost made and how close I came to that being my own theme song. It's still a hard one to listen to for that reason.

    General Comment:I'm not a big fan of this band, but this song caught my eyes. I was doing a report on abortion, when I spotted some artist than had sung about the topic. I started reading lyrics when I stumbled across this one. I then heard it and it really got to me. Just putting myself in that sort of situation almost brings me tears. To know that this sort of procedure goes on everyday is saddening.----Steph
