Amelia

Sweetheart, tell me why you stay
And why you let him get his way
When you know he's got his eye
On another man's goodbye
Miss Yesterday?
Sweetheart, tell me how you live
And what you've got that's left to give
Other than your fourth finger
And the one that's on the trigger
And can you forgive?
So young, oh God, what a waste
To think you're attached at the waist
There's so much more you're allowed
Than what you've already said aloud
Amelia
Girl of the millennia
The modern woman doesn't feel
She'll never die, she won't quit
And you know she'll never kneel
Amelia
Girl of the millennia
The viper that bites the heel
Says, "Do or die. Make the deal
Or reinvent the wheel."
Sweetheart, tell me what you want
Or do you just love font
On those pretty save-the-dates
You're sending to the ghosts you hate
Miss debutante?
Sweetheart, tell me how you breathe
If loving him is how you grieve
Years you're losing by the day
And what is your reward to stay
And what if you leave?
Girl, you can go so much farther
Than the day he asks your father
All this passion's in vain
Go drink your fill before you clog your veins, oh
Amelia
Girl of the millennia
The modern woman doesn't feel
She'll never die, she won't quit
And you know she'll never kneel
Amelia
Girl of the millennia
The viper that bites the heel
Says, "Do or die. Make the deal
Or reinvent the wheel."
Sweetheart, oh, is it not easy? (Amelia)
Sweetheart, oh, you can't blame me (Amelia)
Sweetheart, oh, are things not perfect? (Amelia)
Sweetheart, was the wait not worth it?
'Cause you're the one who's disappearin' (Disappearin'!)
What's life like in the clearin'? (In the clearin'!)
A swan song no one's hearin'? (No one's hearin'!)
But at least you have Ed Sheeran
Amelia
Girl of the millennia
The modern woman doesn't feel
She'll never die, she won't quit
And you know she'll never kneel
Amelia
Girl of the millennia
The viper that bites the heel
Says, "Do or die. Make the deal
Or reinvent the wheel."
