[Verse 1]
Bright afternoon, sky was painted blue,
Driving with my parents, thought the road was smooth.
Laughter in the car, just a regular day,
Didn’t see the danger speeding our way.
Other car swerved, wrong side of the lane,
No time to think, just impact and pain.
Metal clashed loud, the whole world shook,
A second turned forever—life rewrote the book.
[Chorus]
Wrong side of the road, they stole our peace,
Time froze in the crash, couldn’t find release.
We’re still standing, though the scars remain,
Life gave us a second chance through the pain.
[Verse 2]
Parents in the front, doing all they could,
Trying to protect us, like they always would.
Seatbelt tight, but my heart raced loose,
Praying in the chaos, didn’t know what to do.
Glass rained down, sunlight dimmed to gray,
Reality shifted, took my breath away.
Their mistake nearly wrote our fate in stone,
But love pulled us through, we weren’t alone.
---
[Chorus]
Wrong side of the road, they stole our peace,
Time froze in the crash, couldn’t find release.
We’re still standing, though the scars remain,
Life gave us a second chance through all the pain.
---
[Verse 3]
I saw the fear in my mom’s eyes,
Dad’s hands steady, but the chaos defied.
The sound of the impact still rings in my dreams,
A haunting echo that tears at the seams.
But through the wreckage, I found something real,
The strength in survival, the power to heal.
Every mile we take now feels like a gift,
A reminder to cherish how fragile life is.
---
[Chorus]
Wrong side of the road, they stole our peace,
Time froze in the crash, couldn’t find release.
We’re still standing, though the scars remain,
Life gave us a second chance through the pain.
---
[Bridge]
Hard to forgive, but I’m learning each day,
The weight of the anger won’t help me stay.
We can’t rewind, can’t change the past,
But we can hold tight to the love that lasts.
Every drive now, I see it more clear,
---
[Verse 4]
They said we were lucky to walk away whole,
But the scars on our hearts took the real toll.
I hold onto my family a little more tight,
Every goodbye feels more real at night.
The other driver, they made their mistake,
But their choice is a shadow I can’t quite shake.
I’ll live with the lessons that crash taught me,
To never take a moment for granted, just be.
---
[Chorus]
Wrong side of the road, they stole our peace,
Time froze in the crash, couldn’t find release.
We’re still standing, though the scars remain,
Life gave us a second chance through the pain.
---
[Outro]
The road still calls, but I take it slow,
Eyes on the signs, letting wisdom grow.
Afternoon light reminds me to stay,
Grateful for the love that guides my way.
