Breathalyzers
They don’t know what they are doing
Trapped inside and can’t get out
They want to escape but they can’t find the way
They regret their actions every single day
The seriousness of their consequences cause much grief
And they wonder why they walk in their sleep
The lives of many people taken away
By that person behind the wheel without a brain
We don’t need to put innocent people in danger
The ones who drive can test
Before they start their cars all they have to do
Is blow into the instrument to see the truth
Are they capable of turning the wheel
Or will they be too late
And commit the crime and kill
We need to take a step back
And open our eyes
And make a change
For better days.
