The future lies before you, like a field of fallen snow; be careful how you tread it, for every step will show.

If only I hadn’t opened that door,
If only I hadn’t answered that phone call,
If only I hadn’t gotten into that car,
If only I hadn’t walk home alone.

If only I had gone home with my friends,
If only I stayed inside,
If only I’d driven myself,
Then I might still be alive.
