The Dark Side Of 17 Lyrics - Caroline Romano

I get why the kids are throwing up pills 

And why my dad's in bed by 6 p.m 

17, so bittersweet 

With my whole life ahead 

And my final defeat 

The girls are ODing on diet pills 

And I stopped eating just so I could feel 

Rather go down at 17 

Than live my whole damn life without 

Chasing this dream 

One step closer 

No end in sight 

Sweet devotion 

To my great demise

17 

It ain't what it seems 

You find it's not so sweet 

When you don't know what you need 

To be 17 

Oh, babe, it ain't for me 

To want it all 

Or nothing 

It's all overcoming me 

Oh, to be 17 

And my mom doesn't sleep 

Can't end up like her 

You don't know my name 

So this won't be heard 

The prom queen is ruler of the suburbs 

I know at 17 

I can't end up like her

17 

It ain't what it seems 

You find it's not so sweet 

When you don't know what you need 

To be 17 

Oh, babe, it ain't for me 

To want it all 

Or nothing 

It's all overcoming me 

Oh, to be 17 

And I don't wanna live 

But I don't wanna die 

I just wanna sing this song for life 

And I just wanna laugh 

But I've already cried 

So I'm just gonna sing my song tonight 

'Cause I'm 17 

And I don't know what I mean 

You find it's not so sweet 

When you know just what you need 

'Cause I'm 17 

Oh, babe, it ain't for me 

To want it all or nothing 

It's all overcoming me 

'Cause I'm 17
