I love you and good-bye

I went to a party,
and remembered what you said.
you told me not to drink mum,
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 coming mum,
something i expected least.

now I'm lying on the pavement,
and i hear the policeman say,
"the kid that caused this was drunk."
Mum his voice sounds far away.

my own bloods all around me,
as i try hard not to cry.
i can hear the paramedic say
"this girl is going to die."

I'm sure he had no idea,
as he was flying high
because he chose to drink and drive,
now i would have to die.

so why do people do it mum,
knowing that it ruins lives?
Now the pain is cutting through me,
like a thousand stabbing knives.

tell sister not to be afraid mum,
tell daddy to be brave.
and when i go to heaven,
put daddy's girl on my grave.

someone should have told him,
that it's wrong to drink and drive.
maybe if his parents had,
I'd still be alive.

my breath is getting shorter mum,
I'm getting really scared.
These are my final moments,
and I'm so unprepared.

i wish that you could hold me mum,
as i lie here and die.
i wish that i could say i love you mum,
so i love you and good-bye.
