"17" lyrics

17
I can't recall a thing
A cry for help
But no one's ever listening
My life moved faster than the speed of sound
Wish I could go there now
And slow down

Ain't it strange
How people tend to change
I hope she knows
That I would never blame (Her)
'Cause all she did was all she knew
Oh, is it too late now
To slow down?

All my life
I've never had the chance
To stop and smell the flowers
All this time
I never got to sit
And dream away the hours
My memory's
Like black and white TV
And everybody says, it'll be okay
Like life is just a game
But I don't wanna play

21
It should've been so fun
Cherry ripe
I wish I had more time
This summer skin
It fades too quick somehow
Oh, is it too late now
To slow down?

All my life
I've never had the chance
To stop and smell the flowers
All this time
I never got to sit
And dream away the hours
My memory's
Like black and white TV
And everybody says, it'll be okay
Like life is just a game
But I don't wanna play
