I went to a party mom,
I remembered what you said.
you told me not to drink mom,
So I drank soda instead.
I felt really 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're always right.
Now the party is finally ending mom,
As everyone drives out of sight.
As I got in my car mom,
I knew I'd get home in one piece,
Because of the way you raised me mom,
So responisible and sweet.
I started to drive away mom,
But as I pulled onto the road,
The other car didn't see me mom
And it hit me like a load.
As I lie on the pavement mom,
I hear the policeman say,
The other guy is drunk mom,
And now I'm the one who'll pay.
I'm lying here dying mom,
I wish you'd get here soon.
How come this happened to me mom?
My life bursts like a balloon.
There is blood all around me mom,
Most of it is mine.
I hear the paramedic say mom,
I'll die in a very short time.
I just want to tell you mom
I swear I didn't drink and drive.
It was the others mom,
the others didn't think.
He didn't know where he was going mom
He was probably at the same party as I,
The only difference is mom,
He drank, and I will die.
Why do people drink mom?
It can ruin your whole life.
I'm feeling sharp pains now mom,
Pains just like a knife.
The guy who hit me is walking mom,
I don't think that is fair.
I'm lying here dying mom,
While 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,
Write "Daddy's Little Girl" on my grave.
Someone should have told him mom,
Not to drink and drive.
If only they would have taken time mom,
I would still be alive.
My breathing is getting shorter mom,
I'm becoming very scared.
Please don't cry for me mom
Because when I needed you, you were always there.
I have one last question mom,
Before I say goodbye,
I didn't ever drink mom,
So why am I to die?
This is the end mom,
I wish I could look you in the eye,
To say these final words mom,
I love you and good-bye.
