Lyrics (unofficial)

Caroline says
As she gets up from the floor
Why is it that you beat me
It isn't any fun

Caroline says
While she makes up her eyes
You should be more than just yourself
Be more than just I

But she's not afraid to die
All of her friends call her Alaska
When she takes speed, they laugh and ask her

Ash her, what is in your mind
What is in your mind

Caroline says
As she makes up her lip
Life is meant to be more than this
This is a bum trip

Caroline says
As she gets up from the floor
You can beat me all you want to
I don't love you anymore

But she's not afraid to die
All of her friends call her Alaska
When she takes speed, they laugh and ask her

They say, what is in your mind
Hey Caroline, what is in your mind

She put her fist through the window pane
It was such a funny feeling
It's so cold in Alaska
So cold in Alaska
So cold in Alaska
