Heaven at Seventeen |
You reached for heaven at seventeen |
You caught the clap from some teenage queen |
You took a tablet and hit it again and that’s all right |
Sometimes you took the deck too far |
Some say you took it all way too hard |
The mediocrity in moderation was way too tight |
Did you ever stop to think of what was real? |
Did you compromise your time just to cop a feel? |
You think that the time flew by |
Twenty years ago come July |
You’re getting older but not so wise and that’s all right |
You go for words that you cannot reach |
Spew antiseptic allegories |
A walking diuretic of dictionary rhymes |
Don’t you even know your dreams are not for real? |
Don’t you ever find it hard to forge what you feel? |
Just quit your bitching and confess |
Time of your life just came and went |
You’re gonna drown in shallowness |
In the empty sea of frat boys and dunces |
You reached for heaven at seventeen |
You caught the clap from some teenage queen |
Woke up from your suburban daydream, opened your eyes |
