Went to the party, thought it'd be fun
Didn't think that your actions would hurt anyone
You worked the dance floor, had a few drinks
Picked up your keys without stopping to think
Grabbed a few friends, got into your car
Started the engine and drove pretty far
Came to a light and you knew what to do
But instead of stopping, you went right through
Didn't see the other car, never really looked
It's a shame that just one sip is enough to get you hooked
Now you're lying on the pavement in a puddle of your blood
And your friends are dead around you, are you proud of what you've done?
And the driver of the other car, who'd never harm a fly
Is dead is well because you thought that you could drink and drive
Now remember as the paramedics scrape you off the ground
That your actions caused the mess of bodies all around
Now you're lying in the I.C.U. and fighting for your life
As the parents of the others wonder why you're still alive
And deep inside you know you shouldn't have made it through the night
As your standing behind bars because you had to drink and drive
