| I went to a party, mom And i remembered what you said You told me not to drink, Mom So I had a sprite instead. I felt proud of myself The way you said I would That I didn't drink and drive Thought some friends said I should. I made a healthy choice, Mom Your advice to me was right The party finally ended And the kids drove out of sight. I got into my car Sure to get home in one piece I never knew what was coming, Mom Something I expected least. Now I'm lying on the pavement And I hear the policeman say The kid that caused this wreck was drunk Mom, his voice seems far away. My own blood's all around me As I try hard not to cry I can hear the paramedic say This girl is going to die. I'm sure the guy had no idea While he was flying high Because he chose to drink and drive Now I would have to die. So why do people do it, Mom Knowing that it ruins lives? And now the pain is cutting me Like a hundred stabbing knives. Tell sister not to be afraid, Mom Tell daddy to be brave And when I go to heaven Put Daddy's Girl on my grave. Someone should have taught him That it's wrong to drink and drive Maybe if his parents had I'd still be alive. My breath is getting shorter, Mom I'm getting really scared These are my final moments And I'm so unprepared. I wish that you could hold me, Mom As I lie here and die I wish that I could say I love you, Mom So I love you and good-bye. Copyrighted by Anonymous |
