Verse:
You, a friend, and his little brother
You’re driving fast to drop him off with his mother
Your light is green and he doesn’t see the light
The drunk driver headed into the right side of your car
Chorus: x2
Brakes squeal
Cars meet
The flatline of a heartbeat
Verse:
The flatline of a heartbeat
The back seat of a car
That’s where a child’s heart stopped beating
A hard right as the tires squeal
We’re almost there
I can’t believe this is real
Chorus: x2
Brakes squeal
Cars meet
The flatline of a heartbeat
Verse:
Cut on the news as you wake
Watch the screen in horror
As they show the wreck from last night
Feel sympathy for that family
As you wonder if they made it out
Just be glad that it isn’t you
Chorus: x2
Brakes squeal
Cars meet
The flatline of a heartbeat
