I want to stay
I want to stay, mom
But what can I say
It was just a party, mom
And it was fun, but I didn't want to stay
I was driving home,mom
Only a block away, and everything was hush
That's when a flash of light hit me, mom
Now I feel like drowning, it was just a rush
Cutting myself with every touch from the ground, mom
More lights come on and more faces appear
Screaming, crying, yelling and sierns all around me, mom
But it is your voice that I want to hear
the cold bed gives me chills, where are you, mom
Seconds feel like hours and I can see someone coming near
The tears rolling doen your face, I'm glad you're here, mom
I feel you shaking, the tremple in your voice
Please stay, do not let me go, mom
Don't be sad that you let me go to the party, it was my choice
I always loved being told I looked like you, mom
Your strength and the love you gave to everyone
I always wanted to grow up to be like you, mom
The guy who did this knows what he has done
I knew him, he was in my math class, mom
Will I make it, will I get to see my father
I want to stay, mom
I don't even remember the last time I saw my brothers
Please tell me I'm not seeing my end, mom
The man I pray to, cry to, and confess too
I knew I was going to see him but not now, mom
Will I be looking over you is it that soon
I always heard a mother should never bury their child, mom
I'm sorry but put on my grave "Mamas girl"
This can't be the end I had so much to live for, mom
Please help me, my head is going into a swirl
Give me strength, give me something, mom
What's going on I feel this shock going through me
Why can I see you stand there when I'm in the other room, mom
Pray, pray for me, I can't go like this it can't be
How long has it been, mom
I see all my family and friends waiting to see
Shake me, do something to wake me up, mom
I'm right here, right in front of you look at me
I hear you, speaking to me, keep talking, mom
Tell dad I'll always be his little girl
I'm going to fight this, mom
I want to be able to dance with dad and give me twirls
I'm trying so hard to wake up, mom
I need something I don't want to leave now
I wish I could say something to you, mom
So many people came it's turning into a crowd
When I open my eyes all I want to see is you, mom
As I see the light I didn't know what I was doing
" I want to stay, mom"
I guess God had a plan for me to keep going

So many people don't realize what drinking and driving does to a person a family, one mistake and all their dreams, hopes, and life could be taken away. I'm extremely close to my mother and I always want to make her proud. Think before drink.
