I'm not gonna talk like she was my friend,
But she died and I started to cry.
She hung out in the village where I hung out,
Didn't know her well at all, but her soul was fine.

She saw many of the same things I have seen
And I bet she had her own grand dreams.
Now a girl just a few years older than me
Has been taking from the world for no reason it seems.

I see a million bad people a day,
And I know they're bad people, but they won't go away.
They're popping up places everywhere that I see,
So who decided she was gonna be the person to leave?
It coulda been me?

So easily,
Another good girl goes away,
While the bad guys get to stay.
I don't get it or know what to say,
And I'm sorry you were thrown away.

She coulda done so much more but now
The chance has been taken away.
I wish I coulda done something for her
Like go and get death and try and get in his way.

A life cut short while others drag
And plot and steal and scheme.
Now a girl from the same damn village as me
Has been taken from the world for no reason it seems.

I see a million bad people a day,
And I know they're bad people, but they won't go away.
They're popping up places everywhere that I see,
So who decided she was gonna be the person to leave?
It coulda been me?

So easily,
Another good girl goes away,
While the bad guys get to stay.
I don't get it or know what to say,
And I'm sorry you were thrown away.

So easily,
Another good girl goes away,
While the bad guys get to stay.
I don't get it or know what to say,
And I'm sorry you were thrown away.

And I'm sorry you were thrown away.
