I Went To A Party Mom
I went to a party and remembered what you said
You told me not to drink Mom, so I had 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
As 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 comming, Mom something I expected least
Now I am laying on the pavement and I hear the policeman say
"The kid that caused this wreck was drunk", Mom his voice seems so far away
My own blood is all around me, as I try hard not to cry
I can hear the paramedic say, "this girl is going to die
I am sure the guy had no idea while he was flying high
That 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've taught him it's wrong to drink and drive
Maybe if his parents had, I'd still be alive
My breath is getting shorter, Mom I am getting scared
These are my final moments, I am so unprepared
I wish that you could hold me Mom, as I lay here and die
I wish that I could say "I Love You Mom"
So that's it "I Love You, Goodbye"
You told me not to drink Mom, so I had 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
