Seventeen Going Under (Acoustic|Explicit)

Seventeen Going Under (Acoustic|Explicit) - Sam Fender/Holly Humberstone

Lyrics by：Sam Fender

Composed by：Sam Fender

I remember the sickness was forever

I remember snuff videos

Cold septembers the distances we covered

The fist fights on the beach

The bizzies round us up

Do it all again next week

An embryonic love

The first time that it scarred

Embarrass yourself for someone

Cryin' like a child

And the boy who kicked tom's head in

Still bugs me now

That's the thing it lingers

And claws you when you're down

I was far too scared to hit him

But I would hit him in a heartbeat now

That's the thing with anger it begs to stick around

So it can fleece you of your beauty

And leave you spent with nowt to offer

Makes you hurt the ones who love you

You hurt them like they're nothin'

Oh ooh oh oh oh oh oh oh

You hurt them like they're nothin'

Oh ooh oh oh oh oh oh oh

See I spent my teens enraged spirallin' in silence

And I armed myself with a grin

'Cause I was always the f**kin' joker

Buried in their humour amongst

The white noise and boys' boys

Locker room talkin' lads' lads

Drenched in cheap drink and snide fags

A mirrored picture of my old man

Oh God the kid's a dab hand

Canny chanter but he looks sad

God the kid looks so sad

God the kid looks so sad

She said the debt the debt the debt

So I thought about shifting gear

And how she wept and wept and wept

Well luck came and died 'round here

I see my mother the dwp see a number

She cries on the floor encumbered

I'm seventeen goin' under

I'm seventeen goin' under

Oh ooh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh ooh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh ooh oh oh oh oh oh oh
