Seventeen

Cold iron, a heavy young thing

Your whole life, was never on the beat

In the wicked winds you felt

An aching for something else

The Storm in your eyes will tell

In two minds you lost yourself

Still feel seventeen

Cus you never got to be that way

You wake up heavy heart

Wondering when they'll take weight off me

I still feel evergreen

Will I ever get past the day

I wake up heavy heart

Wondering when they'll take the weight off me

Easy, your system stings

How much longer can I bide my wings?

There's a locked up liminal cell

Hear the reaper ring his bell

Stuck in places I can't tell

If I'll get out and keep myself

Still feel seventeen

Cus you never got to be that way

You wake up heavy heart

Wondering when they'll take weight off me

I still feel evergreen

Will I ever get past the day

I wake up heavy heart

Wondering when they'll take the weight off me

Wondering when they'll take the weight off me

Wondering when they'll take the weight off me

Wondering when they'll take the weight off me

I feel my lungs caving in

We sit in silence holding air

I feel my lungs caving in

We sit in silence holding air

Still feel seventeen

Cus you never got to be that way

You wake up heavy heart

Wondering when they'll take weight off me

I still feel evergreen

Will I ever get past the day

I wake up heavy heart

Wondering when they'll take the weight off me

I still feel seventeen

Cus I never got to be that way
