this I read and thought i'd share for all the people that works in the
emergncy field

I WANT TO TELL YOU LIES


I want to tell you lies.

I want to tell that little boy his mom will be just fine

I want to tell that dad we got his daughter out in time

I want to tell that wife her husband will make it home tonight

I don't want to tell them like it is

I want to tell them lies.

You didn't put their seatbelts on; you feel you killed your kids
I want to say that you didn't but in a way you did
You pound your fist into my chest; you're hurting so inside

I want to say you'll be okay...I want to tell you lies.

You left your chemicals within his reach, and now it's in his eyes

I want to say your son will see, not tell you he'll be blind

You ask me if he'll be okay, with pleading in your eyes

I want to say that yes he will....I want to tell you lies.

I can see you're crying as your life goes up in smoke

If you'd maintained that smoke alarm, your children may have wakened

Don't grab my arm and ask if your family is alive

Don't make me tell you they are dead...I want to tell you lies.

I want to say that she'll be okay, you didn't take her life

I hear you say you love her and you'd never hurt your wife

You thought that you didn't drink too much

You thought that you could drive

I don't want to say how wrong you were...I want to tell you lies.

You left your cabinet and your daughter found the gun

Now you want me to undo that damage that's been done

You tell me she's your own child; you say she's only five

I don't want to say she won't see six...I want to tell you lies.

He fell into a pool when you went to grab the phone

It was only for a second that you left him there alone

If you left that damn phone ring, your boy would be alive

But I don't want to tell you that...I want to tell you lies.

I want to tell this teen, his buddies didn't die in vain

Because they thought it would be cool to try to beat the train

I don't want to tell him that this will haunt him all his life

I want to say that he'll forget...I want to tell you lies.

You left for only a moment, happens all the time

How could she had fallen from there?

You thought she couldn't climb.

I want to say he neck's not broken, that she will be just fine

I don't want to say that she's paralyzed...I want to tell you lies.

The fact that you were speeding caused that car to overturn

And we could not get them out of there before the whole thing burned

Did they suffer? Yes, they suffered as they slowly burned alive

But I don't want to say those words...I want to tell you lies.

But I have to tell it like it is, until my shift is through

And then the real lies begin, when I come home to you

You ask me how may day was, I say it was just fine

I hope you understand, sometimes...

I have to tell you lies.

nd it was a hard decision too jake at times, wether too just ell them
No, or too sugar coat it a bit by saying you have too ask the Doctor,
when you knew damn well that he person wasnt going too make it or he was
alread deceased. But no matter how you decide, it still hurts, tohave to
tell a Mother her son?daughter has died. or isseriously injured, and may
not make it.glasses
