lyrics

Lyrics:

Ne-Ah doesn’t come back here often
She’s already forgiven for that
We all wanted a comeback year, we lost it when Ne-Ah left and no one could
Teach us not to give up and stay on track

Ne-Ah wasn’t disappointed in us
She just couldn’t miss a chance to leave
See the disappearing hope and it’s easy to leave your friends behind, but
Neither one of us saw it up her sleeve

Can you blame her, no no, she had to escape
But she was our savior, now no one is wearing the cape

There is nothing wrong with a new beginning
Fair is fair when your home makes you cringe
Her parents spelled her stupid name with an N.E. hyphen A.H. and she’s been
Barely hanging on ever since

Should we have chased her, oh no, after all she’s the brave one
Does the page turn, who knows, when we’re stuck on the same one

She saved her hard earned pennies for something better
A stranger in search of whoever she could endear
She changed her legal name to Mia, spelled it right this time, and she’s been
M.I.A. since then while we’re all stuck here

Mia looked through several states and chose one
Fell in love with the devil and all his ways
And she was full of potential too, it’s a shame we never looked for her, cause
She’s the one who needed to be saved
