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]
