DEATH OF AN INNOCENT
I went to a party, Mom, I remembered what you said. I really felt proud inside, Mom, the way you said I would. I know I did the right thing, Mom, I know you are always right.
As I got into my car, Mom, I knew I'd get home in one piece. I started to drive away, Mom, but as I pulled out into the road, As I lay there on the pavement, Mom, I hear the policeman say I'm lying here dying, Mom....I wish you'd get here soon. There is blood all around me, Mom, and most of it is mine. I just wanted to tell you, Mom, I swear I didn't drink. Why do people drink, Mom? It can ruin your whole life. The guy who hit me is walking, Mom, and I don't think it's fair. Tell my brother not to cry, Mom. Tell Daddy to be brave. Someone should have told him, Mom, not to drink and drive. My breath is getting shorter, Mom. I'm becoming very scared. I have one last question, Mom, before I say good bye, This is the end Mom I wish I could look you in the eye.

You told me not to drink, Mom, so I drank soda instead.
I didn't drink and drive, Mom, even though the others said I should.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom, as everyone is driving out of sight.
Because of the way you raised me, so responsible and sweet.
the other car didn't see me, Mom, and hit me like a load.
the other guy is drunk, Mom, and now I'm the one who will pay.
How could this happen to me, Mom? My life just burst like a balloon.
I hear the medic say, Mom, I'll die in a short time.
He was probably at the same party as I.
The only difference is, he drank and I will die.
I'm feeling sharp pains now. Pains just like a knife.
I'm lying here dying and all he can do is stare.
And when I go to heaven, Mom, put "Daddy's Baby" on my grave.
If only they had told him, Mom, I would still be alive.
Please don't cry for me, Mom. When I needed you, you were always there.
"I didn't drink and drive, so why am I the one to die?"
To say these final words
"I LOVE YOU AND...GOODBYE"
