In the midst of the night
I'd stare at every street light
We would pass hundreds on the long trip home
It was late and I could tell they were tired
After all that coffee though, I was wired.
Somehow I'd fallen asleep to the tune of the engine's drone
As I lay on the wet road of a highway strip
I saw him hand the officer a pink slip
Why were there so many orange cones?
I tried to sit up but it hurt so bad. I looked around and I saw our car.
Where was the phone?
Mommy and Daddy weren't talking, they remained still. My eyes with tears begin to fill. A huge explosion, that gas was blown.
I screamed till my throat bled, for unlimited tears I would shed.
What happened.
The man with the officer was crying his eyes out and speaking true. Did he lose his mommy too?
His voice was in such a weird tone.
I made it to my feet to find that mommy and daddy are leaving, I scream and yell as I realize they're not breathing.
It was only one drink the other man had yelled. That bottle he still held.
I cannot forgive him for what he's done, because without mommy and daddy life's no fun.
