Lyrics

[Verse one] I was always taught to forgive and forget I live a simple life but I can't pretend Like it's all ok, when really it's not Because I've learned that liars get caught I know I'm only seventeen But things get rough When you live in this town and you know you're stuck Until you get a car And even then, you won't get far Don't get me wrong, it's been a party But I think I'm passing out [Chorus] I'm seventeen and it's hard enough To understand that I'm growing up fast My mom and dad, were all I had But everybody drifts I guess I know there's always gotta be a better place than here I can feel the sun, but I'm nowhere near So what do you say we make like angels And get the hell outta here [Verse two] I could make an honest living at the grocery store With all the people who forgot their dreams And closed the doors But I know that I need more I can't survive on mopping floors Now the days of the week are all the same If I'm not at work, then I'm with my friends Doing stupid things, I won't forget Until the day I die Don't get me wrong, it's been a party But I need to move along [Chorus] I'm seventeen and it's hard enough To understand that I'm growing up fast My mom and dad, were all I had But everybody drifts I guess I know there's always gonna be a better place than here I can feel the sun but I'm no where near So what do you say, we make like angels And get the hell outta here Woooaaaahhhhh Let's get the hell outta here Woooaaaahhhhh Let's get the hell outta here Woooaaaahhhhh Let's get the hell outta here I'm seventeen and it's hard enough To understand that I'm growing up fast My mom and dad, were all I had But everybody drifts I guess I know there's always gonna be a better place than here I can feel the sun but I'm nowhere near So what do you say, we make like angels And get the hell outta here So what, do you say? We get the hell outta here
