Swallowing Pride – Being Seventeen Lyrics

I think I’ll need a day off,
Just so I can stand out in the rain,
Burn my brain a little more,
Lost in something,
Probably an endless tunnel of corridors,
I need to set my watch back to yesterday,
Because today everything’s changed…

Why can’t it be the way it was?
Now only laughing hurts,
You’ll always be my closest friend,
But I’ll never get to say,
Because you’re a million miles away…

I think I’m gonna be home late,
I always said I would be here,
Because summer time is coming near,
I don’t have time to think,
I don’t want to waste my time,
Looking for a side of me that doesn’t exist,
It doesn’t have to be like this…

Why can’t it be the way it was?
Now only laughing hurts,
You’ll always be my closest friend,
But I’ll never get to say,
Because you’re a million miles away…

And I guess I’ll hold my friends,
If you’ll only hold my hand,
There is no other way to live tomorrow,
Only the way we live today,
But I guess I’ll never get to say,
Because you’re a million miles away…
