SURROUNDED
by Sheryl
I was there when you shined as bright as Bethlehem from afar
I was there when you were young and strong and perverted
And everything that makes a young man a star
Oh, you were a star
I was there and I swear to God and on my mother's grave,
On everything I have or ever will embrace
I was there and I saw it with my own two eyes
And now it's all around me, it's all around me, I'm surrounded
And now it's all around me, it's all around me, you surround me like a
circle
I was there, come on and tell me I wasn't worth sticking it out for
Well, I was there and I know I was worth it
Cause' if I wasn't worth it, that makes me worse off than you are
It's all around me, it's all around me, I'm surrounded
You know it's all around me, it's all around me, you surround me like
a circle
But don't you lose sight of me now
Don't you lose sight of me now
Don't lose sight of me now
Cause' I was there when they dropped the bomb, you know I remember the
bomb,
And I still hear the bomb
And I still fight the bomb, you know I still fear the bomb, you know I
still hate the bomb
Sometimes I still get the call
So, don't you lose sight of me now
Don't you lose sight of me now
You know your all around me, your all around me, I'm surrounded
You know your all around me, all around me, I'm surrounded
You surround me like a circle
