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 in side Mom, the way you said I would.
I did not drink and drive Mom, even though the others
said I should. I know I did the right thing Mom,
I know you are always right.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom as everyone
is driving out of sight. As I got into my car Mom,
I knew I would get home in one piece, because of
the way you raised me, so responsible and sweet.

I started to drive away, Mom but as I pulled out
into the road, The other car did not see me, Mom
and he hit me. As I lay here on the pavement Mom,
I hear the policeman say The other guy is drunk Mom,
and I am the one who will pay.

I'm lying here dying Mom, I wish you would 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 is mine. I hear the medic say Mom,
I'll die in a short time.

Ijust wanted to tell you Mom, I swear I did not drink.
It was the others Mom, the others didn't think.
He was probably at the same party as I.
The only differance is he drank and I am the one
to die Mom. Why do people drink Mom?
It can ruin your whole life.

I'm feeling sharp pains now. Pains just like a knife.
The guy who hit me is walking Mom and I do not
think it is fair. I'm lying here dying and all he can do
is stare. Tell my brother not to cry Mom, tell daddy
too 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 do not cry for me Mom,
when I needed you, you were always there.
I have one last question Mom, before I say good bye.
I did not drink and drive Mom, so why am I the one to die?

(Unknown)
