Unlucky seventeen
Already handed plans for the future
Glamour obsessed, shown how to dress
And told how to think

And I don't have a job
But I can show you how to be a slob
So many days, wasted and glazed
Sometimes I laugh out loud
As I think about you asking me please can you help
Can't help myself

I'm not your savior
I'm not who you want me to be
A cowardly mistake I've made so many times before
Refusing to break, cut my losses ties them with you
Like a good boy I'll pretend and promise not to do it again

Do you remember when
Life was so simple and permanent
Everyone's changed, everyone's cool
Everyone sucks
But I can't seem to complain
Exciting and new is just not there
You're getting scared

I'm not your savior
Never thought I was anyway
I'm a boy with empty promises that backs out late
Never said I'd change
Taking back the words that we spoke
Like a fuel tank running dry
You'll believe it when I choke
