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 is perfect in that $#&@ed 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

And 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 $#&@ed up way
That all the magazines seem to want to glorify these days
She looks like a teenage anthem

And she looks like she should 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
Her 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
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

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 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
