She walked away...

Ok, so this has nothing to do with Matt and I, but this BarlowGirl song just completely described a friend of mine and I had to write it down:


She couldn't take one more day
Home was more her prison now
Independence called out
She had to get it

A fight was all she needed
To give her reason
She slammed the door with no goodbye
And knew that it was time

Now she's driving too fast
She didn't care to glance behind
And through her tears she laughed
It's time to kiss the past goodbye

I'm finally on my own
Don't try to tell me no
There's so much more for me
Just watch what I will be

She walked away
Couldn't say why she was leaving
She walked away
She left all she had believed in

Not a day goes by
For the ones she's left behind
They're always asking "why?"
And thoughts of her consume her mind

God please let her know
The love we tried to show
We'd promise anything
If you'd just bring her home

Tell her we love her
Tell her she's wanted
And one more thing God
Tell her please, come home
Please, come home

Hey Laura!
I think I know the friend- do I? It's a perfect song, if I'm thinking correctly! I'm praying for her!
