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 fuked up way,
That all the magazines seem to want to glorify these days.
She looks like a teenage anthem,
She looks 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've been happy in a better life.
She came out west just to break away clean,
From her family and her friends and her little girls dreams,
All she wants to do every night,
Is to sit beside my window and listen to the siren's.
Sh's perfect in that fuked up way,
That all the magazines seem to want to glorify these days.
She looks like a teenage anthem,
She looks like she should've been happy in a another life.
In another life.
She came out west just to break the spell,
After three long years in a marriage from hell.
Six 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,
Shes happy with the girl inside.
She looks like a teenage anthem,
And she looks like she could've been happy in another life.
In another life.
Happy in a another life.
Met her at a party and I took her home,
She is the saddest girl that I have ever known.
Yeh 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.
Everything will be alright.
