Chasing your dreams through tv screens
Backalleys, and sidewalks, and more
It's hard to believe that it could end here
There's so much you've yet to explore
"Fifteen?" I say, "Fifteen is too young,"
That god damn stranger did a hit and run
He's not fessing up
You're not waking up
Your life just can't end like this
Lamentably, deplorably, regrettably, unluckily
This looks like it is the end
Tragically, unmagically, nostalgically, woefully
It's so hard to comprehend
What were the chances that it would be you?
What went wrong or what did you do?
You weren't perfect; is anyone?
You had dreams, like everyone
Out of many, you were just one
A victim of a hit and run
