I Don't Want to Die, by Adina M.

I don't want to die

It was just one drink

I didn't think

It would leave me here

Why did I have to have that beer?

I don't want to die

That party was a lot of fun

The game I even won

I was having a blast

Not thinking about my horrible past

I don't want to die

I drank a little too much wine

And got out of line

Not knowing how I would feel

I got behind the wheel

I don't want to die

As I began to drive

I was feeling really alive

Singing and dancing

At the road not glancing

I don't want to die

I was going too fast

The fun didn't last

Everyone started to yell

I didn't hear very well

I don't want to die

I couldn't see anymore

And fell to the floor

Out of control the car got

I felt like I had just gotten shot

I don't want to die

I woke up on the floor

I felt like I had just fought a war

Everywhere there was blood

My body was covered in mud

I don't want to die

The police said we had a crash

My car had gotten a huge bash

He said I was lucky

One had died, my friend Bucky

I don't want to die

My parents were standing over me

Crying a lot I could see

I told them not to weep

Or even make a peep

I don't want to die

It is my entire fault, I said

But I knew I was on my deathbed

I looked up at them sadly

And wanted to touch them so badly

I don't want to die

I wanted to say goodbye

And ask why

But it was too late

I wanted to tell them to wait

I don't want to die

But my parents were already walking away

Already on their way

To bury me in the ground

I couldn't even make a sound

I don't want to die

Goodbye I didn't get to say

Or tell them I loved their way

I was already gone

Because of one stupid mistake that was done

I don't want to die

If you are at a party and you want a drink

Don't drink and drive, just think

If I hadn't been as foolish as I was

I would be here now cause

I didn't want to die
