Seventeen

Shoving raw kale in my mouth

I won't pass out

I won't pass out

I'm seeing stars in the daylight

Something is not right

Something is not right

My body moves

In slow motion

I'm seventeen

Still afraid of the ocean

Again

The devil, he lives in me

I want to be free

Want to be free

A detox, a cup of tea

I'll run till I'm weary

At home lying on the floor

How long must this go for

I'm seventeen again

Mom, I am feeling so sick

I was born like this

Made myself like this

Take me back home where I'm hungry

I am my body

I'm not my body

I'm playing dead

'Cause I don't have the language

To show you yet

Why my energy's faded

My tank's gone from empty to full

But there is still a hole

Between my head and my body

It opens and closes without me

Still makes me feel seventeen
