She's an extraordinary girl
In an ordinary world
And she can't seem to get away
He lacks the courage in his mind
Like a child left behind
Like a pet left in the rain
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying
She gets so sick of crying
She sees the mirror of herself
And image she wants to sell
To anyone willing to buy
He steals the image in her kiss
From her hearts apocalypse
From the one called whats her name
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying
She gets so sick of crying
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying
Some days he's not worth trying
Now that they're both up on it
She gets so sick of crying
She's an extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
In an ordinary world
And she can't seem to get away
He lacks the courage in his mind
Like a child left behind
Like a pet left in the rain
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying
She gets so sick of crying
She sees the mirror of herself
And image she wants to sell
To anyone willing to buy
He steals the image in her kiss
From her hearts apocalypse
From the one called whats her name
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying
She gets so sick of crying
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying
Some days he's not worth trying
Now that they're both up on it
She gets so sick of crying
She's an extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl

The first 3 lines describe her as this girl being beautiful, smart, etc. but no one really knows her that way.... possibly just as an object?
The next three show this man, not sure what the lack of courage symbolizes, but the child in the rain/pet left behind symbolizes he doesn't really have as deep of intelectual as the girl and thus doesn't understand her.
The next 4 are pretty easy. After he breaks up with her, she is so sad for reasons that she feels like killing herself.
In the next 3, she is looking in the mirror of this broken, crying girl and even considers prostitution.
-The next three lines I will do individually.
1. He steals the image in her kiss- may mean that he's ruining the fantasy of a man better than the last
2.From her harts apocalypse- Her heart breaks again as he breaks up with her because...
3. From the one called whats her name- no one cares about how amazing she is as a person, just as how beautiful she is
(Repeat from 3rd group)
Signifies repetition in her life as she can't find anyone who loves her for who she is
The next 6 remind us of her spiraling deeper into this depression
And the last 4 tell us that it will just happen all over again.
Since he is the good version of Jimmy, he thinks of her as a REBEL.
Again, about Whatsername. JOS' feelings for her, what he thinks of her, etc...
**GDA's overlook of the song
happy ending to the song eh?
