Scarlet’s Walk begins on the West Coast, where she visits AMBER WAVES, a phrase found in America The Beautiful and also the name of a porn star in the movie Boogie Nights. Amber’s in trouble. “She had arrived in the city of angels with a dream of being someone. But from ballet class to lap dance and...
[Verse 1]
Well, he lit you up like Amber Waves in his movie show
He fixed you up real good till I don't know you anymore
From ballet class to a lap dance straight to video
And the poolside news was that he would be launching you
[Pre-Chorus]
Into every young man's bedroom you gave it up
On DVD and magazine you gave it up
A private rite of passage you gave it up
To every boy's sweet dream with their paper cuts
[Chorus]
You said, "He's got a healing machine
It glows in the dark, glows in the dark"
You say, "There's not a lot of me
Left anymore, just leave it alone
But if you're by and you have the time
Tell the Northern lights to keep shining
Oh, lately it seems like they're drowning"
[Verse 2]
He could light you up and summon every swan to the lakeside
Off to Cabo San Lucas for some optical stimulus

[Pre-Chorus]
Into every young man's bedroom you gave it up
On DVD and magazine you gave it up
A private rite of passage you gave it up
To every boy's sweet dream with their paper cuts
[Chorus]
You said, "He's got a healing machine
It glows in the dark, glows in the dark"
You say, "There's not a lot of me
Left anymore, just leave it alone
But if you're by and you have the time
Tell the Northern lights to keep shining
Oh, lately it seems like they're drowning"
[Outro]
So I went by, 'cause I had the time
Told the Northern Lights to keep shining
They told me to tell you they're waving
