"Amphetamine" -Art Alexakis
She came out west to find the sun,
She lost her name, but found a new one.
Amy goes to school all day,
but at night in the neighborhood they call her...
...Amphetamine.
She's perfect in that fucked up way
that all the magazines seem to wanna glorify
these days.
She looks like a teenage anthem.
She loooks like she used to be happy with
the girl inside.
She looks so bored sometimes.
She has that super-pale skin and those soft green eyes,
She looks like she could have been happy
in another life.
She came out west just to break away clean
from her family and her friends,
and a little girls dream.
All she wants to do every night
is sit beside my window and listen to the sirens.
She's perfect in that fucked up way,
that all the magazines seem to wanna glorify these days.
She looks like a teenage anthem,
and she looks like she could have been happy in another life....
....in another life.
She came out west to break the spell
after 3 long years and a marriage from hell.
6 months clean living sober and right,
the doctors tell her everything will be alright.
"Yeah, you just take your pill,
and everything will be alright."
She looks like a teenage anthem,
she looks like a magazine girl.
She looks like a teenage anthem,
And it looks like she used to be happy
in another world.
She looks like a teenage anthem.
She's happy with the girl inside.
She looks like a teenage anthem,
and looks like she could have been happy
in another life....
...in another life.
Happy in another life.
Met her at a party and I took her home.
She is the saddest girl that I have ever known.
She wakes me up in the middle of the night,
just to tell me everything will be alright.
Amy smiles at me, and tells me,
"Everything will be alright."
I tell myself the same damn thing everyday.
Everyday.
Everything will be alright.
-dedicated to one particular angel of mine back home that I miss insanely, and to all the girls here on SG that find a way to make me smile on a daily basis.
