Death Of An Innocent

          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 didnt drink and drive, Mom, even though the others said I should.

  I know I did the right thing, Mom, I know you were always right.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom ,as everyone is driving out of
                                sight.

    As I got into my car, Mom, but as I pulled out into the road
the other car didnt see me, Mom, and now Im the one who will pay.

        Im lying here dying, Mom.   I wish youd get here soon.
How cold 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, Ill die in a short time.

        I just wanted to tell you, Mom, I swear I didnt drink.
          It was the others, Mom.   The others didnt think.

                He was probably as 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.
        Im feeling sharp pains now.   Pains just like a knife.

  The guy who hit me is walking, Mom, and I dont think its fair.
          Im 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 Daddys 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,   Im becoming very scared.
Please dont cry for me, Mom.When I needed you, you were always there.

        I have one last question, Mom, before I say good-bye.
        I didnt drink and drive, so why am I the one to die?
