Fairfax, AK - Exile on New Street lyrics

She bought a pack smokes just to prove that she could That fake ID got more use then it should In my brother's car she sat on the pa**enger side 16 on borrowed time she hung her feet out the window She took her sweater off and I saw the bruises on her arms Then she asked me, "Do you think if Jesus came back anyone would even notice?" I never heard a girl talk quite like her before She looked away and played with the lock on the door She held back tears and I parked behind the library with the neon sign We talked about Alaska She calmed down when we got high She said the day you really die Is the day when no living soul can even remember your name I'd be lying if I didn't think she made be nervous But I fell in love with her stories and the false hope in her lies She always said she would head out west to calm down Two weeks later she had hitch-hiked her way out of town
