"Seventeen" lyrics

We could have it all
Just another social cannibal
Searching through the rotten youth
For one more scrap left on the bone
Cut the chord
I don't even need this anymore
So fill me up and watch me overflow
You had to know that I was built to crumble

Scatter me
Pick up all the pieces, all the memories
So I can still remember being seventeen
Pack me up and put me in a time machine
So I can remember when we were

When we were seventeen
I can remember when we were
When we were seventeen
(I can remember)

You don't intimidate me
'Cause I don't give a damn what you've got to say
In one ear and out the other
I'm deaf to the sound

In the end we all pretend
That the world keeps spinning around me

Scatter me
Pick up all the pieces, all the memories
So I can still remember being seventeen
Pack me up and put me in a time machine
So I can remember when we were

When we were seventeen
I can remember when we were
When we were seventeen
(I can remember)

Sipping on euphoria
But choking on reality

Close your eyes
And picture all the times we got it right
And savor the reality

Scatter me
Pick up all the pieces, all the memories
So I can still remember being seventeen
Pack me up and put me in a time machine
So I can remember when we were

When we were seventeen
I can remember when we were
When we were seventeen
