16 year old girl, in a hollow carved out place
Just looking for some prettiness,
But the cuts in her arm don’t paint for her, a very pretty view
In her mind… she dreams that she is… far away, from…
The bright lights of America
Life and death in a sold out-erica,
To live and die in the heart of America
Where they sell souls,
The bright lights of America,
Life and death in a sold out-erica,
To live and die in the heart of America

The bright lights of America
Life and death in a sold out-erica,
To live and die in the heart of America
Where they sell souls,

life and death in a sold out-erica,

The bright lights of America
Life and death in a sold out-erica,
To live and die in the heart of America

The bright lights of America,
life and death in a sold out-erica,
To live and die in the heart of America
Where they sell souls
The bright lights of America
Life and death in a sold out-erica,
To live and die in the heart of America
Where they sell souls,
The bright lights of America,
life and death in a sold out-erica,
To live and die in the heart of America
Where they sell souls
