While I was dreaming
I dreamt I died
I dreamt the funeral
I saw it in my mind
The white lilies and red roses
All posed with care
The coffin up front
I saw my body there
All my family
All my friends
All crying over me
How could this be?
My mind flashed
And I saw the car
It came at me
And all I did was stare
My body helpless
Lying on the concrete
The driver hadn't seen me
Not soon enough at least
My soul saw him
Screaming and not knowing what to do
"Somebody comfort him!" I cried
But no one heard me
I was a ghost
A ghost pleading for my killer's life
The people who saw it there
They cried out "Murderer!"
But I knew him and his world
It, like mine, was filed with strife
That's why he drove so recklessly
He was out to end his life not mine
I hope he'll get a fair trial
For his reckless schemes
But please tell my daddy dear
He never meant to kill me
