I went to a
party,mom,
i remembered what you said.
you told me not to drink,mom,
so i drank soda instead.
I really felt proud
inside, Mom,
The way you said I
would.
I didn't
drink and drive, Mom,
Even though the
others said I should.
I know I did the
right thing, Mom,
I know you are
always right.
Now the party is
finally ending, Mom,
As everyone is
driving out of sight.
As I got into my
car, Mom,
I knew I'd get
home in one piece.
Because of the way
you raised me,
So responsible and
sweet.
I started to drive
away, Mom,
But as I pulled out
into the road,
The other car
didn't see me, Mom,
And hit me like a
load.
As I lay there on
the pavement, Mom,
I hear the policeman
say,
"The other guy
is drunk," Mom,
And now I'm the
one who will pay.
I'm lying here
dying, Mom....
I wish you'd get
here soon.
How could this
happen to me, Mom?
My life just burst
like a balloon.
There is blood all
around me, Mom,
And most of it is
mine.
I hear the medic
say, Mom,
I'll die in a
short time.
I just wanted to
tell you, Mom,
I swear I didn't
drink.
It was the others,
Mom.
The others
didn't think.
He was probably at
the same party as I.
The only difference
is, he drank
And I will
die.
Why do people drink,
Mom?
It can ruin your
whole life.
I'm feeling
sharp pains now.
Pains just like a
knife.
The guy who hit me
is walking, Mom,
And I don't
think it's fair.
I'm lying here
dying
And all he can do is
stare.
Tell my brother not
to cry, Mom.
Tell Daddy to be
brave.
And when I go to
heaven, Mom,
Put
"Daddy's Girl" on my grave.
Someone should have
told him, Mom,
Not to drink and
drive.
If only they had
told him, Mom,
I would still be
alive.
My breath is getting
shorter, Mom.
I'm becoming
very scared.
Please don't cry
for me, Mom.
When I needed
you,
you were always
there.
I have one last
question, Mom.
Before I say good
bye.I
didn't drink and drive,So why am I the one to die?
