AShe always said the world was overratedBAnd she couldn't take the drama it createdDIt's a wonder that she didn't wind up jadedAFrom all the times she's been let down G AWell, mom and dad split up when she was four years oldBAnd left the world as she knew it spinning out of controlDAnd she grew up feeling a hole in her soulA'Cause they were never aroundF#mShe said, "why's everybody always leBmaving?I just want someone to be
Dlieve inAnd someone who believes in me"

Ag down G When you c
Aan't find a friend in the worlBdA friend in the worl
