Caroline Says 2
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Caroline says
As she gets up off the floor
Why is it that you beat me
It isn't any fun
Caroline says
As she makes up her eyes
You ought to learn more about yourself
Think more than just I
But she's not afraid to die
All of her friends call her Alaska
When she takes speed, they laugh and ask her
What is in her mind
What is in her mind
Caroline says
As she gets up from the floor
You can hit me all you want to
But I don't love you anymore
Caroline says
While biting her lip
Life is meant to be more than this
And this is a bum trip
But she's not afraid to die
All her friends call her Alaska
When she takes speed, they laugh and ask her
What is in her mind
What is in her mind
She put her fist through the window pane
It was such a funny feeling
It's so cold in Alaska
It's so cold in Alaska
It's so cold in Alaska
