[Verse 1]
I know you feel it tonight
She’s a million miles from this life
Never to return
She left it all behind
If only I could have known
The things she held in her soul
She harbored so much hurt
She faced the world alone

[Chorus]
She dropped out and just tore herself away
She was never born to follow
Dropped out of a world she couldn’t take
And she was never born to follow

[Verse 2]
Into this life, she was born
A firefly in the storm
And God, how she would burn
She needed so much more
She never said goodbye
So it came as no surprise
I always feared the worst
The peace she had to find
[Chorus]
She dropped out and just tore herself away
She was never born to follow
Dropped out of a world she couldn’t take
And she was never born to follow

[Bridge]
What else could be said
What else could be done
Life has slipped away
Should have, could have, overcome
Still, I miss her face
Brighter than the sun
She had to find her way
She dared to dream, she dared to run

[Chorus]
She dropped out and just tore herself away
She was never born to follow
Dropped out of a world she couldn’t take
And she was never born to follow
