17

I was only 17
 Dreamt of being on a silver screen
 I was only 17
 When I met you
 Living in the haze made by
 Loved ones who had raised me
 I knew where I had to be, but I wasn't there yet

 ♪
 But when I fall asleep, I fall back home
 And when I close my eyes
 I find that there's more to life than I've known
 And when I hear my stranger in my own bed
 I know that there's more to this life then
 
 Thought you were the only one who knew me
 I was a stranger in my own heart
 And when you left, I thought I never would recover
 The mask that I hid under blew apart
 But growing up isn't growing hard
 It's realising that we're part of the stars
 So much love and so much that I've yet to see
 But I'm not who I thought I'd be
 At 17
 But when I fall asleep, I fall back home
 
 And when I close my eyes
 I find that there is more to life than I've known
 And when I hear my stranger in my own bed
 I know that there's more to this life then

 Do you fight it?
 Do you keep on running away?
 Do you fight it?
 Is this all you thought you could take?
 Do you fight it?
 Do you really want that or were you told to be
 Someone else at 17?
