WRONG

She killed the pain

She’s glad she’ll never hear his voice again

Yet even now she wakes up crying for him

What’s wrong with her?

What’s wrong inside?

What’s wrong with her, does she want to die?

DON’T BELIEVE

Got no faith anymore

There’s no God in the sky

No such man as a good man

Don’t tell me those lies

Don’t believe in anything

It’s a hard way to be

Don’t believe in miracles

Don’t believe in me

MADNESS

One minute I’m up,

The next minute I’m down

Thoughts in my head

Are all spinning ‘round

I want to live forever

I want to die today

I want to take the risks

But I don’t want to pay

Happy one second,

Angry the next

Wondering what’s wrong

Cause there’s a tightness in my chest

Ambivalent feelings pulling left and right

My heart is pounding so fast

I don’t know how do deal with this

How long will the madness last?

Once in love,

Then drowning in hate

Can’t catch my breath

I can’t breath deep enough

My heart is pounding in my chest

I wonder how deep the madness goes

How long it takes till it overflows

GROWING UP

Places to go, things to see

You don’t know what you want to be

Your heart is beating so damn fast

Surprised it doesn’t beat out of your chest

Uncertain of the future, wondering about the unknown

Afraid to lose all your friends, thinking of how you’ve grown

You’ve all been through so much together

The pain the heartache stormy weather

Love the idea of going away

Afraid you don’t have the strength to stay

So much is changing all so fast

My head is spinning, spinning so fast

Everyone wants to do it for you; you just want to cry

They’re all pushing so hard you’ve gotta try

Gotta try and kept it all together

Where do you want to go? Stormy weather

What do you want to do?

Who do you want to be?

How can I answer all these questions?

I’m only seventeen
