Michael

Driving down a dark road

on the last night of his life

Michael's in the back seat

Thinking everything's alright

He was young, and so invincible

The radio was blasting

in the car he got from dad

tail lights in the distance

are the last of him I have

and it's all so inconceivable

Chorus:

When they told me you were gone

I hated god for what he'd done

I'm trying hard to understand

And I know I shouldn't want this to

be someone else instead of you

I thought you were so invincible

Four o'clock in the morning

Before the break of dawn

Michael left forever

from the town where he was born

and I woke up crying, 'cause I knew you were gone

Chorus:

And it hurts to miss you everyday

this feeling never goes away

I'm trying hard to understand

And I drive the streets we grew up on,

I can't believe it's been so long

I thought you were so invincible

Bridge:

I want to change the way the story goes

why can't it have a happy ending?

Driving down a dark road

on an endless summer's night

Michael's in the back seat

and he makes it home alright

Chorus:

And at night he whispers in my ear

I hear his voice so loud and clear

He tries to help me understand

that he'll always be right by my side

a part of him will never die

that's what makes him so invincible
