Shinedown - Her Song/Ashley's Song lyrics

[Intro: Shinedown] Wrap me in a bolt of lightning Send me on my way still smiling Maybe that's the way I should go Straight into the mouth of the unknown I left the spare key on the table Never really thought I'd be able Say I merely visit on the weekends I lost my whole life and a dear friend I've said it so many times I would change my ways, no, never mind God knows I've tried [Hook: Shinedown] Call me a sinner, call me a saint Tell me it's over, I'll still love you the same Call me your favorite, call me the worst Tell me it's over, I don't want you to hurt It's all that I can say So I'll be on my way [Olet] I got a letter from a girl Let me read it to you Goes like this [Verse 1: Olet] "Dear, Olet, my name is Ashley I'm writing to you cause I'm hurt from people laughing at me I get made fun of all the time at school They call me fat and worthless, school is so cruel I hate when lunchtime comes, cause I sit alone I sit there with tears on my face, praying to go home But why go home? All I do there is cut my wrists My parents don't care that I do this sh** And no one loves me, it's like I'm a piece of trash I don't get why god had to make me this fat No one would ever care if I took my life Every night I get closer to the knife And I have to say this all sounds about right I totally understand if you don't reply I just need someone to talk to you, and you seem to be a nice guy Believe me or not, but your music really helps me." [Hook: Shinedown] Call me a sinner, call me a saint Tell me it's over, I'll still love you the same Call me your favorite, call me the worst Tell me it's over, I don't want you to hurt It's all that I can say So I'll be on my way [Verse 2: Olet] First off, I wanna say thanks for writing me Your story grabbed my heart as you can see They will stop soon, just keep fighting Believe it or not, we've been in the same position No one would help me either, ears shut I wouldn't listen But I promise, we all have a vision You're here for a reason. Don't forget that You're bullied because they're mad at what you've become Don't let them phase you. You're way too young Don't get weak around them, stay strong Whenever you're hurt, play this song Damn, I get so mad Cause who are they to judge? There is too much hate Where is the freaking love? Kids these days just try to disguise it They're not big and bad, it's just false And I wanna find it I wanna stop all this bullying sh** Cause all its doing is putting innocent peoples' lives at risk You want a girl dead? What's the point in all this? [Shinedown] I finally put it all together Nothing really lasts forever I had to make a choice that was not mine I had to say goodbye for the last time I kept my whole life in a suitcase Never really stayed in one place Maybe that's the way it should be You know I live my life like a Gypsy I've said it so many times I would change my ways, no, never mind God knows I've tried [Hook: Shinedown] Call me a sinner, call me a saint Tell me it's over, I'll still love you the same Call me your favorite, call me the worst Tell me it's over, I don't want you to hurt It's all that I can say So I'll be on my way
