[Verse 1]
My parents sold the house and everyone moved out
Am I the only one who still thinks about it all?
And I still think of my friends and all the times that we spent
But now I wonder if I'll ever even see them again
[Chorus]
Oh, but tell me
Why am I the only one who feels that way?
Everyone moved on while I just stayed the same
How could I move on and start a family?
When every part of me feels like I'm seventeen
Only seventeen, woah
Only seventeen
[Verse 2]
And mama I'm sorry, I know that you love me
Oh, father forgive me I take as you dealt me, yeah
I take as you dealt me, yeah
And brother how are you? I know it's hard on you
You learn to forget all the pain that he brought you, yeah
All the pain that he brought you, yeah
[Chorus]
Oh, but tell me
How is anyone supposed to live that way
When everything you love is just a memory?
I still look outside and I still hear the rain
But it doesn't ever seem to make me feel the same
It doesn't feel the same, woah
It doesn't feel the same
It doesn't feel the same
[Bridge]
And I don't mean to sound corny but I had to get this all off me
All the screams that I heard from the backseat
And I can't remember anything
Maybe that's the best thing for me
Maybe that's the reason I still can't fall asleep
[Verse 3]
And to all of my friends that I left behind, I apologize
It took so long just to figure out who I was, but now I realize
One thing that I learned from it is that time flies
And I can't wake up for everything so just know that you mean the most to me
[Chorus]
How is everyone supposed to live that way
When everything you love is just a memory?
I still look outside and I still feel the rain but
It doesn't ever seem to pour out quite the same
It doesn't feel the same, woah
It doesn't feel the same
It doesn't feel the same
[Outro]
All of my friends I left behind I apologize
It took so long just to figure out who I was, but now I realize
One thing that I learned from it is that time flies
And I can't wake up for everything so just know that you mean the most to me
