Athena, my heart felt like a shattered glass in an acid bath I felt like one of those flattened ants you find on a crazy path I'd have topped myself to give her time, she didn't need to ask Was I a suicidal psychopath? She's just a girl, she's a bomb She's just a girl, she's a bomb Consumed, there was a beautiful white horse I saw on a dream stage He had a snake the size of a sewer pipe living in his ribcage And I felt like a pickled priest who was being flambed You've got me requisitioned blondie She's just a girl, she's a bomb She's just a girl, she's a bomb Just a girl...

Athena, you picked me up by my lapel and screamed leave her. I felt like waking up in heaven on an empty meter And now you're stuck with a castrated leader And I hate the creep I didn't mean that.... Athena, I had no idea how much I need her My life has been so settled and she's the reason Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone But I think I'll get along She's just a girl...
