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 neigborhood
They call her Amphetamine
She is perfect in that fucked 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 have been happy
In a better life
She came out west just to break away clean
From her family and her friends
And a little girl's dream
All she wants to do every night
Is to sit beside my window
And listen to the sirens
She is perfect in that fucked up way
That all the magazines seem to want to glorify these days
She looks like a teenage anthem
And she looks like she shoulld have been happy
In 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 all right
Yeah, you just take your pill
And everything will be all right
She looks like a teenage anthem
She looks like a magazine girl
She looks like a teenage anthem
Like she used to be happy in another world
She looks like a teenage anthem
She is happy with the girl inside
She looks like a teenage anthem
Andd looks like she could have been happy in another life
In another life
Happy in another life
Met har at a party and I took her home
She is the saddest girl I have ever known
She wakes me up in the middle of the night
Just to tell me everything will be all right
Amy smiles at me and tells me everything will be all right
I tell myself the same damn thing
Every day
Everything will be all right
