- Songwriters: John William Stevenson
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)
