| And I heard
|
| With every emphasis you put, on every word
|
| With every lesson that you taught but never learned
|
| With every bill you had to pay with money I had earned
|
| You say you’ve always felt the heat but never burned
|
| In your nest
|
| Where you gather all your things to head out west
|
| Where you check if there’s still something in your chest
|
| 'Cause you think you really tried, you did your best
|
| To convince yourself you’re good before you rest
|
| Face the sun, face the sun
|
| Face the sun and follow
|
| You’ll be the one, be the one
|
| Be the one, tomorrow
|
| Please remember me
|
| I was seventeen
|
| Break your neck, break your neck
|
| Break your neck and follow
|
| In your home
|
| Contemplating consequences all alone
|
| Where you think of jumping fences but you’ve grown
|
| And the things you think you have, no you don’t own
|
| Held together like your wings that aren’t sewn
|
| Face the sun, face the sun
|
| Face the sun and follow
|
| You’ll be the one, be the one
|
| Be the one, tomorrow
|
| Please remember me
|
| I was seventeen
|
| Break your neck, break your neck
|
| Break your neck and follow
|
| Break your neck, break your neck
|
| Break your neck and follow
|
| Break your neck, break your neck
|
| Break your neck and follow
|
| Break your neck, break your neck
|
| Break your neck and follow
|
| Break your neck, break your neck
|
| Break your neck
|
| Please remember me, I was seventeen
|
| Break your neck, break your neck
|
| Break your neck and follow
|
| And follow
|
| I was seventeen, I was seventeen
|
| Break your neck, break your neck
|
| Break your neck! |
