It was just another week in high school
In Parkland, USA
Until you tripped that fire alarm
On Saint Valentine’s Day
Your troubled heart was beating fast
Your fingers gripped cold steel
And all that pent-up hate you held
Was lookin’ to get real…

(Chorus)

How’d you get so angry
What made you so mean
Who made you a monster…
With a Colt… AR 15?

The first one fell and then two more
In crimson colored pools
They thought that the school expelled you
But you’re nobody’s fool
Your face was the last thing they saw
Before the deed was done
There’s no starting over
Once those bullets leave the gun…

(Chorus)

How’d you get so angry
What made you so mean
Who made you a monster…
With a Colt… AR 15?

Did seventeen just have to die
To purge the pain of one?
Our leaders say that you’re to blame
But who… sold you that gun?

(Chorus)

How’d you get so angry
What made you so mean
Who made you a monster…
With a Colt… AR 15?

Yeah how’d you get so angry
What made you so mean
Our schoolyard’s now a grave yard
Thanks to a Colt…. AR 15
