Tunnel Vision


RING! RING! Click! A text came through It reads "WHR R U?" Not parked, moving motion CRASH! SLAM! SCREECH! What's the commotion? Three spins and a twist your wrapped around a pole Broken bones and a bloody nose Your in a comma, the crash was fatal Your friends and family feels the betrayal The memories of you tears them apart Should've left it alone from the start Now your gone, no more you No more family barbecues BEEP! BEEP! WAKE UP! Your holding up traffic, its a green light DNT TXT ND DRV 2 C ANTHR NGHT (don't text and drive to see another night)
