Lyrics
I know what you wanna say
I think that you're all the same
Constantly being led astray
You think you know something you don't
Downtown hotspot, halfway up this street
I used to be free, I used to be 17
Follow my shadow around your corner
I used to be 17, now you're just like me
Down beneath the ashes and stone
Sure of what I've lived and have known
I see you so uncomfortably alone
I wish I could show you how much you've grown
Downtown hotspot used to be on this street
I used to be 17, I used to be 17
Now you're hotshot, hanging on my block
Sun coming up, who is my shadow?
La-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la-la
I know what you're gonna be
I know that you're gonna be
You'll crumble it up just to see
Afraid that you'll be just like me
Downtown hotspot, halfway through this life
I used to feel free or was it just a dream?
Now you're hotshot, think you're so carefree
But you're just 17, so much like me
You're just 17, you're just 17
17
