Ezra Furman - Ally Sheedy in the Breakfast Club lyrics

Ally Sheedy in The Breakfast Club
The black shit on your eyes
Your purse full of junk
I build my world on versions
Of your VHS visage
And when Anthony Michael Hall
Interrogated you about the way you
Hoarded all your secrets in a
Bag around your neck

Part of me was swimming there beneath
The water in your eyes
Silent she
Keeping quiet as the joy and fury rise
Taking their time
A sugar sandwich and a stolen knife
Secret jacket pocket and a double life
"There’s no deal, forget it, never mind
Everything's cool"
I watch her flicker on my TV
The teenage girl I never got to be
She's burning like a torch out in
A field that's all her own

And when we run away together
We'll have all supplies we need
And we'll do what we have to
Do and scatter lilac seeds
Among the weeds

"My home life is unsatisfying"
"I didn't have anything better to do"
