Find Out More (an ode to Aaron Feis)
Lyrics, vocals - Krause

​
Cause of the things he done
There’s another daughter and a son
Who are goin’ home today but he won’t be…
In the blink of just an eye…
He saved those children’s lives
He acted so extreme and selflessly…
He’s a hero and a friend
Who gave it all up in the end
‘N there’s one thing that I know he’ll never be…
He’ll never be forgotten
He’s a hero that was shot in
That school shooting this past Valentine’s Day…
CHORUS
So I gotta praise his name
And ya’ll just gotta do the same
Let’s raise a toast to Coach Aaron Feis
Cause he sacrificed his life
And a widow now his wife
And fatherless is sweet Arielle
But he saved those children’s lives
That hero Aaron Feis
And I gotta say his tale we must tell
But it’s such a God damn shame
And I’ll not mention his name
But that killer, was a time bomb tickin’ away…
And with 39 warning signs
It seems so many knew he lost his mind
But the Promise took the warnings all away…
See the local law they knew
And the FBI well they did too
But to say they dropped the ball is a disgrace…
And the history that he had
Makes it all so much more sad
Cause he should’ve been blocked somewhere along the way…
But again they failed us
And they’ve broken all my trust
We gotta find out more and what to change…

CHORUS
So I gotta praise his name
And ya’ll just gotta do the same
Let’s raise a toast to Coach Aaron Feis
Cause he sacrificed his life
And a widow now his wife
And fatherless is sweet Arielle
But he saved those children’s lives
That hero Aaron Feis
And I gotta say his tale we must tell
See when the shootin’ started
Wasn’t sittin’ out in his car in
The parkin’ lot like some local deputy…
No he was inside the school
And he really kept his cool
Even when that kid lifted his mean15…
And as that killer started gunnin’
That coach he started runnin’
But away was not the direction that he ran
Ran as those bullets flew
Ran at them ‘cause he knew
He had to take control in his own hands
See away he never ran
For good and right he’d always stand
He’s just a brave and fine upstanding man
​
CHORUS
So I gotta praise his name
And ya’ll just gotta do the same
Let’s raise a toast to Coach Aaron Feis
Cause he sacrificed his life
And a widow now his wife
And fatherless is sweet Arielle
But he saved those children’s lives
That hero Aaron Feis
And I gotta say his tale we must tell
​

​
Set the flag at half the mast
And the students and the staff
Might say a prayer for the heroes of the day
But again it’s all so sad
Cause the Feds and cops all had
The info that coulda really made a change
But the system was a bust
And so fix it all we must
But the answer just ain’t takin’ Two away
Cause when they fail us again
It’s my right now to defend
My family and me until the end
So I’m tellin’ all of you
Don’t go take away my Two
Don’t try to pass that law and to amend
Cause this I’ll guarantee…
If Coach was allowed on campus to CC…
Today with us I know that he’d still be…
And the body count be less than 17
​
CHORUS
So I gotta praise his name
And ya’ll just gotta do the same
Let’s raise a toast to Coach Aaron Feis
Let’s raise a toast to Coach Aaron Feis
Let’s raise a toast… to Coach… Aaron Feis
​
Cause this I’ll guarantee…
If Coach was allowed on campus to CC…
Today with us I know that he’d still be…
And the body count be less than 17
CHORUS
So I gotta praise his name
And ya’ll just gotta do the same
Let’s raise a toast to Coach Aaron Feis
Let’s raise a toast to Coach Aaron Feis
Let’s raise a toast… to Coach… Aaron Feis
