Driving in the car with my best friend
I had no idea that this was the end
The song "Haunted" by Kelly Clarkson is on the radio
The weird thing is, it fits the moment, you know?
The engine running, a big flash in my eyes
When I woke up, I could hear her cries
"Doctor please! Please help her!" I heard her say
What does she mean? I'm okay!
Trying to open my eyes, she stands over me
She was the saddest I've ever seen
The next day in school, I was walking down the hallway
I saw my friend Mike, and I said "Hey"
He didn't turn around, I guess he didn't hear
I don't even think he knew I was near
I said his name, and he stopped walking then
Before I could say more, the clock struck ten
The bell rang, and he turned around
He saw nothing at all, though I was waving my hands 'round
A few hours after, I saw him again
Why is he ignoring me? I thought we were friends
I said his name, then screamed it out loud
He covered his ears and turned around
He shook his head, in disbelief
What the heck? Doesn't he see me?
"MIKE!" I screamed, he turned again, and this time his eyes got wide
I think he saw me, but why? It's not like I died!
I could hear him whispering "Taylor, is that you?"
Yes it's me! Why wouldn't that be true?
"Taylor, where are you?" He started to say
"I'm right here! Hello?" I said, "Hey!"
Then he nodded and walked away, so I walked through the door
I raised my hand to answer a question, I know which is more!
I could see tears in Jalissa's eyes, why was she crying?
Because of what happened yesterday? About me dying?
Wait, what?! How did I die?
Why all of the sudden am I about to cry?
I ran into the hallway, screaming Mike's name
He came out, and finally saw me, and said my name
"What happened to you?" He whispered "How come I can see you?"
Oh my God, I am dead.. this is true!
"You need to help me," I said, "Please, I don't know what to do"
He whispered back, "How? I can barely even see you.."
A second later, I find myself in this old broken down house
The only living thing was that little white mouse
I saw Mike and Jalissa walk in, him calling out
I said "I'm right here" and I started to shout
"What was that?" I heard Jalissa say
"It's Taylor," Mike said, "She's okay!"
Jalissa started to stutter, then she saw me
A smile on her face with a tear in her eye, she still wasn't happy
In her hand I could see a white necklace in the shape of a heart
Then I knew, she was prepared from the start
She gave it to me, and I put it on
All of the sudden, I felt really strong
I saw my figure coming to form, and I gave a smile
I knew what was happening, I waited for a while
I felt myself faint, and when I opened my eyes
I could hear Jalissa's cries
"I can't believe it" I heard her say
I saw Mike smile and I knew it, I was okay.
I shot up in my bed, with sweat on my for head
For a second I thought I was actually dead
But anything can happen, and there's nothing you can do
Cause one day, that can actually come true
