New Girl Lyrics
american schools called you starlight
in fourteen-point type
10 x 10 and then
your most brutalful smile
you were looted
you opened wide
gave props to the knives
props to the cheating wives
be kind to the new girl
you erased so many mistakes
by sitting up & smiling
your solo show
i hope it never closes
it was the ride of my life
twice you burned your life's work
once to start a new life
and once just to start a fire
be kind to the new girl
you are
no, you are
uh, no, you are
no, you are
in fourteen-point type
10 x 10 and then
your most brutalful smile
you were looted
you opened wide
gave props to the knives
props to the cheating wives
by sitting up & smiling
your solo show
i hope it never closes
it was the ride of my life
twice you burned your life's work
once to start a new life
and once just to start a fire
no, you are
uh, no, you are
no, you are

Basically seems to be John heaping praise upon a girl he's recently befriended. I'm not really sure, but I know that it makes me very happy.
Anyone know what the "No, you are" bit is about? Or the rest of it for that matter.
"twice you burned your life's work once to start a new life and once just to start a fire"
I love that lineee. This song is really cool, its like hes met someone he really respects and hes just singing her praises for what shes done with her life. Its like shes sucessful without being wraped up in it all.
you are no, you are uh, no, you are no, you are
That ending bit reminds me of a, "No, I love you more...no, I love YOU more," conversation had by a boyfriend and girlfriend, but I could be completely off.
