Lyrics #5 Seventeen

[Verse 1]

One and two and three

Oh, she died so easily

Four and five and six

All that’s left of her are these white sticks

Seven, eight and nine

Oh, she looked so petrified

Ten, eleven, twelve

She couldn’t save herself

 

[Bridge]

And now she’s lying somewhere in the mud

Screaming silent screams

Now she’s lying somewhere in the mud

Trapped in a death-like sleep

 

[Chorus]

Oh you can call me a monster

But I don’t think that’s fair

It’s not that I didn’t love her

It’s just that she didn’t care

And you can call it a murder

A homicide, but you’d be wrong

We shared a manic disorder

One that no doctor could cure

We were both just seventeen

I grabbed her hand and took her with me

 

[Verse 2]

One and two and three

Oh, we could have been so happy

Four and five and six

We fell like a ton of bricks

Seven, eight and nine

Oh, she could have just been mine

Ten, eleven, twelve

She didn’t want to save herself

 

[Bridge]

 

[Chorus]

 

[Verse 3]

I spent my whole life

Counting up all her lies

Barely got to seventeen

When I grabbed her hand and took her with me

 

[Chorus]
