As you walk from the party,
Think you're O.K.
Get in the car and drive away.
Go to switch lanes,
Have to swerve to the right,
Can barely see.
It's the middle of the night.
Hit the sidewalk,
Don't know what you did.
Get out of the car,
Realize you hit a kid.
You go to check,
Make sure he's alive.
God, he must have only been 5.
Cops show up,
Cuff your hands.
Take you to prison,
Ruin all your plans.
You were gonna go to college,
Start a career.
Now you're locked up
For at least 20 years.
You realize you made
The biggest mistake of your life.
Decide one day,
To end it with a knife.
Now you're dead,
And so is he.
This all could have been prevented,
If a friend would have taken the keys!
