She's sits in the corner thinking
about all the things
she has done.She says she's the only one to blame
the candle next to her seems
brighter than the light
in her heartNo one understands her painThey just don't get herShe's caught up in the story
she's only 17
there's no one to protect her
she's just like you and me
I don't think it's fair
Can no one see
what is going onshe tries to hide the scars
she's taking pills
to make it go awayshe cries herself to sleep at night
When people point at her
and treat her like she
doesn't belong
she just closes her eyesThey don't quite get herShe's caught up in the story
she's only 17
there's no one to protect her
she's just like you and me
I don't think it's fair
Can no one see
what is going onShe's dying inside
no one to run to
looking for love
there's no one aroundEverything else feels
like a daily dream
I can not believe
someone to find thislove that's all she needsYou couldn't understand
even if you tried
you won't believe
what its like to
feel this wayA thousand voices
trying make you feel
like everything is your faultIt just won't go awayThey don't, I get hurtShe's caught up in the story
she's only 17
there's no one to protect her
she's just like you and me
I don't think it's fair
Can no one see
what is going on X2what is going on... with her
