The Magazine Girl
written by Halfblind Henry


Her dark sunglasses hold back a wave of dyed hair
she's toting a lifestyle magazine she picked up somewhere
Her necklace is made of vintage chain and pearls
Her designer handbag's full of women's tools
She's a child of the modern world
but she lives by a different set of rules

As she's walking across the hall
she looks so self-assured and tall
drawing the line line between the false and the true
she knows exactly where she's going to

She won´t play no games
She's got a hundred names
Nothing will be the same
the gate is closing now


She's been to school and learned her lessons well
She knows more about us than anyone can tell
Turning on one high heel while checking her mobile
a strange look of commitment in her eyes
Swiftly slipping through the turnstile
as the blast takes everybody by surprise

And it only goes to show
behind everything there's something you don't know
You can't judge someone by the style of clothes
you never would have guessed she was one of those

She won´t play no games
She's got a hundred names
Nothing will be the same
the gate is closing now

Long ago she made a promise
you never would have wanted her to keep
She had this dream about awakening
while you would watch her sound asleep
