"I'm With You" by Avril Lavigne

I'm Standing on a bridge I'm waiting in the dark I thought that you'd be here by now Theres nothing but the rain No footsteps on the ground I'm listening but theres no sound Isn't anyone trying to find me? on't somebody !ome take me home

It's a damn !old night Trying to figure out this life ont you take me by the hand Take me somewhere new I dont know who you are but I""" I'm with you

Im looking for a pla!e sear!hing for a fa!e is anybody here I know #!ause nothings going right and everything is a mess and no one likes to be alone Isn't anyone trying to find me? on't somebody !ome take me home

It's a damn !old night Trying to figure out this life ont you take me by the hand Take me somewhere new I dont know who you are but I""" I'm with you
