Seventeen

 do you remember days when we were living


lately it seems were merely existing


the stars are faded


the sky is duller now than it was before


when the world was a simpler place


now there are things weve lost that time just cant replace





do you know who you are


do you think you can tell


the diference between the truth


and the lies that they sell


do you know what to think


when the world is troubling you


do you know what to tell yourself


just to get you through






"Seventeen
and the time keeps running away from me
Seventeen
and we gave up all of our dreams
for the things we were convinced we wanted at the time
its such a fine line

moving forward and losing all my energy
keep on trying keep on reaching
the more the day goes on the more i have trouble  handling
everything , thats thrown at me
life seemed so easy before ,
its not so simple at seventeen "

we were

losing hope
running low
on cash and places to turn
so many wants
so many needs
so many things
 left behind



"Seventeen
and the time keeps running away from me
Seventeen
and we gave up all of our dreams
for the things we were convinced we wanted at the time
its such a fine line
moving forward and losing all my energy
keep on trying keep on reaching
the more the day goes on the more i have trouble  handling
everything , thats thrown at me
life seemed so easy before ,
its not so simple at seventeen "



recalling all the time
how things were so difficult
but i got through
theres nothing that is mine
all i want is to get to safety but the ways i can are disappearing
and it feels as though i should give up because theres not a thing that i can do
im fallin and falling
through the clouds
sixteen was just a dream
life is unsafe when your
Seventeen

life is but a dream
we never understood
the things that we should
we never knew where to turn
we were all on our own
at SEVENTEEN

sixteen was just a dream
it seemed so easy before
its not so simple at seventeen
