"I Don't Want To Die" lyrics

A guy I went to school with got hit by a car yesterday
We weren't even friends but it still hit me in the same way
And it had me thinkin' if that night I'd walked the same street
It could've been me
That could've been me

And at 2 AM his parents get a call from the cops
Cause of death was a drunk driver, we're sorry for your loss
Can't imagine what it must be like to bury the kid
You're gonna outlive
You're gonna outlive

You just never know
When you're gonna go
I'm scared that my time will come
And they'll say I was too young
Now I lay in bed
All up in my head
Thinkin' about leavin' this world behind
I don't wanna die

And be a body ten feet under the ground
Everyone I love gets used to me not bein' around
Life is finally gettin' good, I know one day that it'll end
But don't take me yet
Please, don't take me yet

You just never know
When you're gonna go
I'm scared that my time will come
And there'll be so much that I still haven't done
Now I lay in bed
All up in my head
Thinkin' about not getting to say goodbye
I don't wanna die

I don't, I don't
I don't, I don't
I don't wanna die
I don't, I don't
I don't, I don't
I don't wanna die
I don't, I don't
I don't, I don't
I don't wanna die
I don't, I don't
I don't, I don't
I don't wanna die

I don't, I don't
I don't, I don't
I don't wanna die
I don't, I don't
I don't, I don't
I don't wanna die
I don't, I don't
I don't, I don't
I don't wanna die
I don't, I don't
I don't, I don't
I don't wanna die

I turned on the news this morning and I looked at his face
Guess I never really thought someone could die at my age
So I call my family, all the friends that I haven't seen
That could've been me
That could've been me
