Lyrics
<lyrics> My best friends are gone Far and way beyond. And they left me here with no one by my side.
How can I get by With no one to [try] And pick me back up when I fall down?
My support has left Me and I'm a wreck About things I need to help me make it on through.
Now what can I do With no cheering crew There to make me feel like I don't suck?
There was a brightening day.
ooh whoa whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh There was a brightening day.
My whole scene has split They don't give a spit About anybody else on earth but themselves.
So we'll burn in hell And think that it's swell Just as long as we get our own rooms.
</lyrics>
