Drunk on the Highway


Voice #1 I'm a sober driver My vision is clear I'm driving in the correct lane. I see that the light is red. So the car is brought to a halt. My distance is equal from other cars In a few minutes I would have time to react This is not my last breath. My Life Continues Voice #2 I'm a drunk driver My vision is hazy I'm driving in the wrong lane. I see that the light is red. So the car stays in motion. My distance is narrowing from cars. In a few minutes I will feel indestructible. We Collide. This is my last breath. While my Life Ends.
