Seventeen ain't so sweet.

Well she never was the best
Yeah at following the trends
Stayed one step above the rest
And even though it seemed

Like the world was crashing on her
Didn’t let it hold her down
Didn’t hold her back oh no

Don’t worry you’ll show them

There’s a fire in your eyes
And I hope you’ll let it burn
There’s a scream in your voice
And I hope you will be heard
There’s a fire in your eyes
And I hope you’ll let it burn
Until you’re heard, you’re heard

Seventeen is just a test
Yeah and I would recommend
That you live with no regrets
And even if it seems

Like the world is crashing on you
You shouldn’t let it hold you down
Shouldn’t hold you back oh no, woah oh

Don’t worry you’ll show them

There’s a fire in your eyes
And I hope you’ll let it burn
There’s a scream in your voice
And I hope you will be heard
There’s a fire in your eyes
And I hope you’ll let it burn
Until you’re heard, you’re heard

Relax girl, turn down the lights
No one can see you shining
Relax girl, it’ll be alright
No one can stop you if you try

Point of rhythm is to follow it in time
To listen to the beating in your mind
Remember if you seek then you shall find
Woah oh

There’s a fire in your eyes
And I hope you’ll let it burn
There’s a scream in your voice
And I hope you will be heard
There’s a fire in your eyes
And I hope you’ll let it burn
Until you’re heard, you’re heard

There’s a fire in your eyes
And I hope you’ll let it burn
There’s a scream in your voice
And I hope you will be heard
There’s a fire in your eyes
And I hope you’ll let it burn
Until you’re heard, you’re heard

…until you’re heard…

This world can't tear us apart



All the pain in this world won’t stop us now
For we have each other
All the hate in this world can’t tear us apart
This love is forever


In arms we’ll turn (a)way
From their ways
We live like no other
Together we’re hope
Absolute
The only thing that matters



All the pain in this world won’t stop us now
For we have each other
All the hate in this world can’t tear us apart
This love is forever

All the pain in this world won’t stop us now
All the hate in this world can’t tear us apart

All the pain in this world won’t stop us now
For we have each other
All the hate in this world can’t tear us apart
This love is forever

Clouds

Oh my God
This town, it feels like a headache
And all the words inside my mouth won’t come through.
I’ve got this pain in my head that I can’t shake
When I remind myself I can’t get to you.

And it rained all day
And I figured it out I’m not the person that I used to be
Washed away
Please someone make me okay
Because I’m feeling like I might…

Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
‘Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won’t stay away.

I watched you change with the seasons
I wrote you letters but I forgot to mention that
I’m a wreck, I’m a mess, you’re a stranger.
Watch your face fade away
Now I’m stuck here

Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
‘Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won’t stay away.

She said,
“Turn your back cause you’ll never understand.”
I can’t get through
I can’t get through to you
But the silence and the shaking of your hands
Says differently to me

You watched me wait on the steps of your house
I stood outside, you refused to come out
And honestly, this is making me sick.

All this time
I tried to hide
The truth inside
But this is making me sick.
This is making me sick.

Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
‘Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won’t stay away.

She said,
“Turn your back cause you’ll never understand.”
I can’t get through
I can’t get through to you
But the silence and the shaking of your hands
Says differently to me

Take today and make my way
Through the town, the streets, the pouring rain
‘Cause some days,
It seems like the clouds won’t stay away.

Stay away

Some days, it seems like the clouds won’t stay away


Oh no the battle forms inside
And I speak, but you don’t see the signs
My heart aches, leaving me here to hide
My world shakes, until you assure me

Oh no there goes composure
Over and out to sea
Oh no this won’t control me
But it seems to get the best of me


The same problem, coming to haunt me again
And I know its taken the best of my head
The same problem tears me to pieces inside
And I’m left to wonder oh why…


Oh no I’m crossing my fingers
In hopes that you will not leave me
Far away, the silence it burns me
As I wait, the tension builds

Oh why can’t I move forward?
Oh why does my mind wander?
Oh why does my heart desire you?


Oh no there goes composure…

The way she feels.

Shes upset
Bad day
Heads for the dresser drawer to
Drive her pain away
Nothing good can come of this.
She opens it theres nothing there
Its only left over tears
Mom and dad had no right she screams
The anger runs down both of her cheeks.

Then she closed her eyes
And found relief in a knife
The blood flows as she cries

All alone the way she feels
Left alone to deal with all the pain-drenched sorrow relief
Bite the lip just forget the bleeding

Then she closed her eyes
And found relief in a knife
The blood flows as she cries [x2]

Curled up shes on the floor
Relief left her she had hoped for something more
From it (hoped for something more)
From it
He leans down to comfort her
She is weeping and He
Wraps His arms around
And around and around and…
The deeper you cut
The deeper I hurt

The deeper you cut
It only gets worse [x2]
Gets worse.


Now shes slowly opening… [x2]
New eyes…

She opened her eyes
And found relief in His life
And put down her knives.

She opened her life
And found relief through His eyes
And put down
She put down her life.
