What does it mean when you're sixteen The world's a cold and lonely place But you're still kicking Every door down in the place The war of words they're so upright You pass a hundred sleepless nights And the worst is yet to come or so they say Here comes seventeen And just beyond There's tolerance and empathy To protect you from them all A stand of evergreen Just like the places we would always talk about To catch you when you fall You hear a knock outside the door It never rains here anymore So now there's nothing new To was away the pain A frightened face your clouded mind The memories you've trailed behind And seventeen still feels light years away Nobody seems to understand you As your grasping for that innocence Sequestered in your mind Was it guilt or were they blind All this time |
