Iona Luke - Seventeen Lyrics

Cold iron, a heavy young thing,
Your whole life was never on the beat

In the wicked winds you felt
An aching for something else
The storm in your eyes will tell
In two minds you lost yourself

Still feel seventeen
Cus you never got to be that way
You wake up heavy heart
Wondering when they'll take weight off me?

I still feel evergreen,
Will I ever get past the day
I wake up heavy heart
Wondering when they'll take the weight off me?

Easy, your system stings
How much longer can I bide my wings?

There's a locked up liminal cell
Hear the reaper ring his bell
Stuck in places I can't tell
If I'll get out and keep myself

Still feel seventeen
Cus you never got to be that way
You wake up heavy heart
Wondering when they'll take weight off me?

I still feel evergreen
Will I ever get past the day
I wake up heavy heart

Wondering when they'll take the weight off me?
Wondering when they'll take the weight off me?
Wondering when they'll take the weight off me?
Wondering when they'll take the weight off me?

I feel my lungs caving in
We sit in silence holding air
I feel my lungs caving in
We sit in silence holding air

Still feel seventeen
Cus you never got to be that way
You wake up heavy heart
Wondering when they'll take weight off me?

I still feel evergreen
Will I ever get past the day
I wake up heavy heart
Wondering when they'll take the weight off me?

I still feel seventeen
Cus I never got to be that way.
