Do you feel it tonight?
She's a million miles from this life
Never to return
She left it all behind
If only I could've known
The thing she held in her soul
She harbored so much hurt
She faced the world alone
She dropped out and just tore herself away
She was never born to follow
Dropped out of a world she couldn't take
She was never born to follow
Into this life she was born
A firefly in a storm
God how she would burn
She needed so much more
She never said goodbye
So it came as no surprise
Only feared the worst
At least she had to find
She dropped out and just tore herself away
She was never born to follow
Dropped out of a world she couldn't take
She was never born to follow
What else could be said?
What else could be done?
A life that slipped away
Should of, could of overcome
Still I miss her face
Brighter than the Sun
She had to find her way
She dared to dream
She dared to run
She dropped out and just tore herself away
She was never born to follow
Dropped out of a world she couldn't take
She was never born to follow
