Paroles: All. Breaking Things. Birthday I.O.U..

I.O.U. so many things
I.O.U. everything
But I can't repay you
And it's too late to save you

There really wasn't a choice
Seventeen was just too young
I couldn't hear your voice
I couldn't feel your living

I.O.U. so many things
I.O.U. everything
But I can't repay you
And it's too late to save you

My son, my mistake
(I.O.U. so many things)
My son, my mistake

I know you could have been a girl baby
Now you can't be anything
We needed you to prove our love
We used you, then we killed you

I.O.U. so many things
I.O.U. everything
But I can't repay you
And it's too late to save you

My son, my mistake
(I.O.U. so many things)
My son, my mistake

Right to life?
Who decides?
Is there wrong and right?
When Mom and Dad treat you so bad

We made our own decisions
No one else's business
We'll learn to live with our mistakes
Live by learning from our mistake, my mistake

I.O.U. so many things
I.O.U. everything
But I can't repay you
And it's too late to save you

My son, my mistake
My son, my mistake
(I.O.U. so many things)
My son, my mistake
(I.O.U. so many things)
My son
(I.O.U. so many things)
