Drink driving.

Ever since i heard your name,
i wanted to be with you.
You hung with the cool gang,
and wasn't scared to play the game.
A neck of courage and full on front,
i managed to talk to you.
We chatted and we got on great,
downing the spirits and dancing,
I'd thought I'll leave the rest to fate.
Ever since that night we were mates.
Every weekend we would party away,
the envy of all our mates.
Then one night came, an hour from home,
no where to go, out of our heads.
' We'll risk it and drive he chose.
Racing down the road, we careered,
the quicker the better.
Dodging the pavement, careless people.
the flashing blue lights, siren blowing.
Turned our stomachs and our heads.
Cars turning so fast and crashing,
this overtake, will be my undertake,
the boy driving turned it into a rally.
The sirens blaring and us bashing,
into everything that got in our way.
There it was, the mountain,
that was never going to move,
he was still treating it like a groove.
A turn of the wheel, a flash of my life.
a three sixty turn, a crash,
a wall collapsing in our necks.
A child screaming in our ears,
a mother calling out, in tears.
My eyes flickering, it was all a blur.
I realised only one thing, i was stupid.
A near death and three accidents,
because we chose to drink and drive.

If you want to keep everyone alive,
and you want to arrive alive,
DON'T drink and drive.
