Weather Avoid One Thing or Souls did it better is mostly opinion.
but to me, in terms of melody, souls did it better, the flow was better, especialy at the last verse "Not a friend til the end No, she's never coming back again Know what's on my mind and in my heart" you can feel a sort of pain in seeing a friend runaway, you're happy they're leaving their horrible life, but sad you know you may never see them again.
But, honestly, Avoid One Thing made the tone better, especialy in not changing the last verse, yes alot of abused teens run away from home, but the reality is most stay home and take it day after day, and with the last verse with a happy melody, you'd expect change, you'd expect sheena to finally leave, but in the end, she stays. Which is kind of like like itself, it's bad, you want change, you want improvment, but you can only keep your happy tone and hope it gets better someday.
