lyrics

Saying nothing was your best bet,
Your actions said enough.
So go ahead & give up something
For someone who did nothing for you.
& after everything, I'm sorry to say kid,
You let me down.

I still see the light you never saw in yourself,
But it's burning out.
You're wearing down,
But don't give up.

I know you're afraid to be alone,
& I can tell where your heart is.
Isn't 17 too young to give up now?
Do you know who you are when this world get's too much to bear?

So don't count your losses yet,
Don't burn your bridges when,
There's a hand reaching out to guide you.
Loosen up the rope that's kept you tied down,
& see where this world will take you.

& after everything, I'm sorry to say,
You let me down, you're wearing out,
But you don't have to fall.

I know you're afraid to be alone,
& I can tell where you're heart is.
Isn't 17 too young to give up now?
Do you know who you are when this world get's too much to bear?

This is the beginning, it's not the end.
Open up your eyes & see beyond C-Street.
