17

If walls could talk I think mine would have a lot to say
It's been a while since I thought about it 'cause so much has changed

When I'm alone the memories show up in my head
And I'm afloat but I don't know for how much longer

I used to dream of being seventeen
But I know now that thoughts aren't reality
I used to be so naive
But I know now that nothing is guaranteed
It all went by so fast

So many things I wish that I had known before
If this is what the rest is like, then what is it all for?

The light at the tunnel is coming closer every day
But if I don't like what's on the other side I can't run away

I used to dream of being seventeen
But I know now that thoughts aren't reality
I used to be so naive
But I know now that nothing is guaranteed
It all went by so fast

And if I don't want to leave right now?
Can someone stop the time?
And if I don't want to grow up just yet?
Will I be filled with regret?
And if I feel like there's things I should've done?
Is it too late to be someone else?

A daydream of seventeen
A daydream of seventeen
That I believed
