went to a party, And 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, Though some
friends said I should. I made a healthy choice, And 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.
