Sharon Van Etten - Seventeen

i know what you wanna say
I think that you’re all the same
constantly being led astray
you think you know something you don’t

downtown hotspot
halfway up this street
I used to be free
I used to be 17
follow my shadow
I used to be 17
now you’re just like me

down beneath the ashes and stone
sure of what I’ve lived and have known
I see you so uncomfortably alone
I wish I could show you how much you’ve grown

downtown hotspot
halfway up this street
I used to be 17
I used to be 17
now you’re a hotspot
hanging on my block
sun coming up
who is my shadow?

I know what you’re gonan be
I know that you’re gonna be
you’ll crumble it up just to see
afraid that you’ll be just like me

downtown hotspot
halfway up this street
I used to be 17
I used to be 17
now you’re a hotspot
hanging on my block
sun coming up
who is my shadow

you’re just 17
you’re just 17
17
