This Was Not the Plan - Everett's Death

Can you get something for nothing
If nothing is all you got
Sit down I'll tell you a story
A story of how I go shot
Shot through the heart with a dagger
Or maybe an old metal spoon
When you lose the life of a loved one
It feels like your heart broke in two

Don't go down that path
It's dangerous, it's dangerous
Can you get something from nothing
I don't think you can
Don't bring up the past
It's dangerous, it's dangerous
Don't attempt something from nothing
Cause that's not the plan

Don't stop
Have faith
Keep it up
You're doing great
You know the story
Let it out
It's therapy

I remember it was Wednesday
A Wednesday night that was so dark
I wasn't paying attention
As he left the parking lot
He took a right at the exit
I took a left in my car
He rode a kid's bike for miles
I went the wrong way too far
I called my wife minutes later
Told her I just lost our son
She said we should start a search party
This isn't the first time he's run
Two hundred people were searching
Searching for my son in vein
Hit by a truck on the freeway
While he was crossing the lanes

I said don't down that path
It's dangerous, it's dangerous
Can you get something from nothing
I don't think you can
Don't bring up the past
It's dangerous, It's dangerous
Don't attempt something from nothing
Cause that's not the plan

This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
What was the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
What was the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
What was the plan
This was not the plan

Can you get something from nothing
When nothing is all that you got
Now let me tell you a story
A story of how I got shot
Shot through the heart with a dagger
Or maybe an old metal spoon
When you lose the life of a loved one
It feels like your heart's torn in two

This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
This was not the plan
What was the plan
This was not the plan
