One last Ride
I fear your choice to drive that car, you have no licence and came from some bar.

No seatbelt I see, the race is starting now, two drivers and yourself drifting up town.

You win the race, you're happy and gloating, "Who's car is this"? not his, I'm noting.

ARRESTED! BOOM, your crime has been captured, you're only 16, you're so stupid, I thought.

Locked up for a month in jail he pleads loudly, apologetic, he promises to be good, he's vowing.

A BBQ birthday and the beer takes control, his mates car was parked up, he takes it, stolen, no soul.

We all yell and chase him to come back, as he speeds away. Nothing we say was heard, he refused to stay.

Later that evening a knock at the gate, "Where is Keagan"? his mum arrived with her mate!

The police call later that very same night, "I'm sorry", "we found him".."he was dead on sight".

One wrong choice ended his young life that night, no seatbelt on, he broke his neck on impact, that's right!

Open cast funeral, I kissed his cold face goodbye and I moved into his mother's house to help her get by.
