The Accident

by Taylor   Oct 11, 2007


In the quiet streets of my development
I've had these scary thoughts, though you didn't
My heart was beating fast and I was breathing hard
Until the flash of the headlights, the headlights of a car

I was blinded by the burst of light, and I saw you
I was afraid of what was going to happen, I didn't know what to do
I started screaming your name, but you didn't hear
The roaring engines, your death was near

I looked away for a second, then I looked back
The car was gone, and you were lying in a crack
In the street, I rushed over to you, checking your heart beat
I looked up to the stars, and I admit defeat

I looked at you, with your eyes shut, and there you lie
I knew the truth, and I just started to cry
Then the ground started to shake
I fell down, like it was an earthquake

I woke up, sweat beaded my for head
I'm not sure if your really dead
I looked in the mirror, wiped the sweat away
I tried to look for you the next day

I saw you and breathed a sigh of relief
Sometimes my nightmares ruin my belief
You came up to me and said "Hey"
And I smiled and walked with you down the hallway
