Amphetamine Lyrics


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 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
She looks like she should have been happy in another life
Ooo, in another life
Ooo, in another life
Yeah, in another life
Oh, oh, oh, oh
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
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
Looks like she could have been happy in another life
Ooo, in another life
Happy in another life
Ooo, in another life
Happy in another life
Ooo, in another life
Happy in another life
Ooo, 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
Yes, she wakes me up in the middle of the night
Just to tell me everything will be alright
Amy smiles at me, tells me everything will be alright
Yeah, Amy smiles at me, tells me everything will be alright
Yeah, I tell myself the same damn thing everyday
Ooo, everything will be alright
Ooo, everything will be alright
Ooo, everything will be alright
Ooo

Everclear is a rock band formed in Portland, Oregon, USA, in 1992. For most of its existence, Everclear consisted of Art Alexakis (b. 12 April 1962, Los Angeles, California, USA; vocals, guitar), Craig Montoya (b. 14 September 1970; bass, vocals) and Greg Eklund (b. 18 April 1970; drums). Eklund replaced original drummer Scott Cuthbert in 1994. Montoya and Eklund departed the band in 2003, but Alexakis has continued performing as Everclear with a new lineup.

After a solo tour in the fall of 2003, Alexakis decided to continue with Everclear, organizing a new band that made its debut in March of 2004. The new lineup consisted of bass player Sam Hudson, guitarist Dave French, and drummer Eric Bretl. In the summer of 2004, the band added keyboard player Josh Crawley, and swapped Bretl for former Everclear drum tech Brett Snyder. The new lineup released its first recording, a cover of Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, that summer. A self-released EP of performances recorded for XM Satellite Radio called Closure was given out at shows in the fall of 2004.

Free of a major label, Alexakis spent the ensuing year and half slowly recording material for a new Everclear release. He admitted that the time after the breakup of the original lineup served as a "wake up call", during which he suffered his third divorce and a filing for bankruptcy. Alexakis announced the completion of the album in early 2006,titled Welcome To The Drama Club. The new band is now on Eleven Seven Music.

In August of 2008, drummer Brett Snyder left the band after four years. He was then replaced by Tommy Stewart, who previously played in bands Fuel and Godsmack.
