In a red car
Convertible top down
Zooming fast
Two teens squealed and shouted
...
I don't want him
I don't want this
I want a romance thought up on a whim
...
I'm in over my head in this nightmare
The water is dragging me under
And I'm gasping for air
I kick a little harder
...
He doesn't like me
And he never will
But I can't accept that reality
There's a black hole I need to fill
...
Young And Reckless
In a red car
Convertible top down
Zooming fast
Two teens squealed and shouted
Adrenaline pumping through their veins
Young and reckless
Young and in love
She looked at him
Her cheeks red, hair blowing
Smiling and laughing
He looked at her
Wondering how he ever got this lucky
Eyes back on the road
A split-second too late
In the middle of the road
A car, broken down
He frantically turned the wheel
Tires screeching
Thunderous crashing
Glass flying
Screams piercing
Excruciating pain
Black out
He opened his eyes
Felt something warm
Running down his face
Hands covered in blood
Pushed away paramedics
Madly searched for his love
She was lying in the road
Thrown from the car
Her head bleeding profusely
He cried out in agony
Held her head in his arms
Patted her blood-soaked hair
She opened her eyes
Just a slit,
Whispered, 'I love you.'
He whispered, 'I love you, too.'
Bent his head and kissed her
Their very last kiss
She smiled
And shut her eyes forever
Gone to a better place
She was too good for this cold, cold world
He sobbed and sobbed
Wishing he could have died instead
His heart broken
His life in pieces
His girlfriend gone
Gone, gone, gone
She left this world
Young and reckless
Young and in love
