Lyrics

You’re 13, soon you’ll be 14
Heading off to high school
Life is full of mystery
Bodies changing, craving attention
You’re not the only one

Then a stranger shows you affection,
He’s looking for some fun
Locked up in your room without direction
That was the day he took your innocence

Amanda why are you so sad
If only we could turn back the hands of time
I know you’d take that moment back
Your beautiful, and much too young to die
The thought of you so lonely
Sends shivers down my spine

You’re 14 soon you’ll be 15
Already changing high schools
Life is full of misery
And that stranger showed them your picture
Kids can be so mean

But it’s not enough to end your life
So much you’d never seen
Locked up in your room always crying
I wish I could’ve told you that it’s not worth dying

Amanda why are you so sad
If only we could turn back the hands of time
I know you’d take that moment back
Your beautiful and much too young to die
The thought of you so lonely
Sends shivers down my spine

Hi I’m Robin, I remember the feeling of wanting to die when my friends turned on me.
I remember the fear of going to school like it was yesterday. Now I’m 40, and I’m here to tell you my story. Because a voice inside my soul said “Don’t”. Now, when I look up to the sky, and thank the stars that I'm alive. And for the chance to sparkle before I die.

Amanda why are you so sad
If only we could turn back the hands of time
I know you’d take that moment back
Your beautiful and much too young to die
The thought of you so lonely
Sends shivers down my spine
