Should've Said No

Went to a party where she shouldn't have been
Thought it'd be fun to hang with her friends.
Parents worried too much, so she'd just go.
She wouldn't be long, they'd never know.

She had a few drinks after they made fun.
She couldn't stand to be the only sober one.
And after a couple of wisecracks and jokes
She too, took part in whatever they smoked.

Stumbling down the hall, with a hot guy
Didn't seem wrong after all that night.
The party was great, and she went home,
Thinking to herself, they'll never know.

A few weeks passed, and it never came.
The time of the month that was always the same.
She ran to the drugstore nearest the school
Three tests later, the party wasn't so cool.

She drove herself home, held her head low.
Voices in her head saying, "You should've said no."
A future down the drain, parents yet to face.
All because she felt a little out of place.

A new life within her own made this a mess.
Nobody would've known, if she'd never said yes.
Now the party that lasted for a single night
Has completely changed the rest of her life.
