17
 
now I'm seventeen
My school is in the country
Students wear trainers
Read the same magazines
 
Now i'm seventeen
My school is getting tiresome
Teachers-they're so young
Singling me out
 
Only like philosophy & after school the time
That's what I call my own, my own time
Nice girls meet nice boys end of school day
While other girls go straight home
Talking 'bout soaps'n' that
 
I go home alone
Like it watching the nameless people
Surfing subways, travelling somewhere
nowhere
 
Now I'm seventeen
I do not have a title
Depend on no one else
Busy being kind (to myself)
 
I go home alone
And have dinner in my sweet home
Praying again, again & again
 
I see the same faces in school & they say that I am different
I think it's an honour
I say it's an honour to be different
I can't go their way
 
Surfing subways, travelling somewhere
nowhere nowhere ...
 
now I'm seventeen
now I'm
seventeen
