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, like the others said I should.
I know I did the right thing Mom, I know you are always right.
Now the party
is over Mom, and everyone is driving out of sight.
As I get into my car Mom,
I know I'll get home in one piece,
Because of the way you raised me Mom, so responsible
and sweet.
I started to drive away Mom, as I pulled into the road,
The
other car didn't see me Mom and hit me like a load.
As I lay here on the pavement
Mom I here a policeman say,
"The other guy is drunk" Mom and Im 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's 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 their whole life,
Im feeling sharp pains now,
Pains 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 goodbye,
I didn't drink and drive Mom,
Why am I the
one to die.
