Only Seventeen

She was an only child

With her body and mind she had to much attention

Too much of everything

She was an angel child

But the devil within her would test her on the way

Into the dark filled places underground

She entered in forbidden rooms

Only seventeen

All alone so alone

All alone so alone

Into the tunnel and back toward the light

That shines between the fingers of dark

The light that shines showing the way to the start

She was an only child

She had so far to fall then so far to climb

To get to the light again

She was a special child

She know what was coming but she know she could not turn

Back in the dark filled rooms

One of a crowd but more than on her own

All alone so alone

All alone so alone

Into the tunnel and back toward the light

That shines between the fingers of dark

The light that shines showing the way to the start

Only seventeen somewhere in between

The race is almost over now

The dance is almost done

Remember how it was when it was fun?

All alone so alone

All alone so alone

Into the tunnel and back toward the light

That shines between the fingers of dark

The light that shines showing the way to the start
