lyrics

She took off her gloves, lit a cigarette, but never took a drag
She’s too preoccupied with expectations
Then it went out and another cigarette she goes
Another thought she had, but then never let go

She’s just
Just lost
In it
Oh-oh
Oh no
She’s just a nicoteenager
Looking for that fix
She’s just a nicoteenager
Good for love or a bump
As if she knows the difference anyway

Eating candy hearts, because tonight she feels like she doesn’t have one
As those pills she takes make what’s left stutter and falter
She’s got wires for veins and the power’s out
I could hear her watch ticking in my ear as she kissed me

She’s just
Just lost
In it
Oh-oh
Oh no
She’s just a nicoteenager
Looking for that fix
She’s just a nicoteenager
Good for love or a bump
As if she knows the difference anyway

No one told her that we’ve been in Neverland
She thought it was broken, but it was just a mosaic
They say hindsight’s twenty-twenty, but I already have twenty-ten
So take my hand and I’ll try to be what you’ve been missing

If she’s just a girl then why can’t I sleep at night?
If she’s just a girl then why can’t I sleep at night?
If she’s just a girl then why can’t I sleep at night?
If she’s just a girl then why can’t I sleep at night?

She’s just
Just lost
In it
Oh-oh
Oh no
She’s just a nicoteenager
Looking for that fix
She’s just a nicoteenager
Good for love or a bump
As if I know the difference anyway
