I stand here in shock and disbelief,
What are you trying to tell me?
This is wrong, this isn’t true,
Let me see the boy you say is dead,
Cause I know it’s not my son,
Don’t touch me, don’t tell me you’re sorry,
How can I convience you that’s not Shane,
You need to find that boys mother,
She needs to know, it’s going to break her heart,
Look what you’ve done, upsetting my family,
And my husband, look what you’ve done to him,
Damn you! tell them the truth,
I can’t believe you’d do this,
Why, are you really that cruel?
Don’t anyone come near me, cause yall believe him,
Oh Mike, why are you crying?
Please tell him to go away and leave us alone,
You know that this is all wrong,
I will not lay down, I will not take a pill,
All of you get away from me,
Where did you get my son’s wallet?
He’d never let anyone have that,
Unless, unless..........
Oh God no!
