Everything Changed Lyrics
I heard the sound,
dull smash of shatterproof glass,
everything stopped in the parking lot,
for a little girl face down on the ground,
we all knew that she gone,
all came near, no nothing was said,
I had never seen somebody dead,
for me everything changed
understand I was very high,
I just quit my job, no I just got fired
the day she died for me everything changed
could've been the shame of not even trying,
could’ve been the blood in her matted hair,
or how regrets of the dying are added to the air
for me everything changed
dull smash of shatterproof glass,
everything stopped in the parking lot,
for a little girl face down on the ground,
we all knew that she gone,
all came near, no nothing was said,
I had never seen somebody dead,
I just quit my job, no I just got fired
the day she died for me everything changed
could've been the shame of not even trying,
could’ve been the blood in her matted hair,
or how regrets of the dying are added to the air

so a little girl got hit by a car. Perhaps john is taking the role of the man who hit her? because it says he was very high? OR...he was just an innocent bystander who saw this and realized that death is that quick and easy, so thats why everything changed? im not sure... awesome song
I'd say it was in the POV of the man who hit her, if only for the line "the day she died FOR ME everything changed."
I think the point is how self-centred the guy in the song is. Even though he's just killed a girl, his main concern is how it affects him, how he is whacked off his face because he's lost his job. A little girl being dead is only important because it affects him.
