Scott Reagan - Land of Heartbreak Lyrics

In this land of heartbreak
Over and over it's the same mistake
When it gets tough, the tough keeps going
Like the wind that just keeps blowing
In 2002 my baby girl was born
A few years later she loved princesses and unicorns
I can still hear her sweet little squeaks
And feel her lashes brush against my cheeks
One summer, just me and her at the beach
I tried to think of more that I could teach her
But one day that privilege was taken from me
When some kid came to school and shot my baby
I couldn't stand, I just collapsed
I know I'll feel the pain no matter how much time has passed
Feels like I'm stranded on an island in a lake
Somewhere in this land of heartbreak
Is it too much to ask, lord
Too much to ask, oh lord?
All I want is justice and peace
And a little gun control, please
If you can't give my baby back
Then you must do something, lord
To cure this land of heartbreak
