Girls I Know

Every girl I know who spun out Teenage years spent drinking beers And pills and darts and bleach We all meet in a new place where nothing feels as good And nothing feels as bad That's the choice we made Chewing off our legs Going to the farmer's market Going back to school Calling up a friend Going back to bed Instead of going far away, that place we loved to be "Anywhere but here, baby," said through grinding teeth Every girl I know looked beautiful at night When everything kicked in When our bodies lost the fight There are girls who don't come back And though I loved them then I would trade it all to have them here I would give anything To see her cutting up magazines on my kitchen floor Smiling to herself, talking and eating well [Instrumental Break] I do another boring thing I brush my teeth, I clean the sink
