[Verse 1]
I never got in 1st place
Was always worried about the worst case
Never learned to breathe out
That's one of my curses
Everything is surface
And I don't know how to act
Yeah, I never was the fastest
Got beaten by my classmates
Started skipping classes
And writing these songs about you
When everyday is gray
I miss the blue

[Chorus]
And I don't even care about it
As long as you care about me
Life was better when I was 17
And I don't even care about it
As long as you are happy
Life was better, but at least now I'm free
And I don't even care about it
As long as you care about me
Life was better when I was 17
And I don't even care about it
As long as you are happy
Life was better, but at least now I'm free

[Verse 2]
Dirty, dirty
Girl, you are always in hurry
You left me with no mercy
I cried my eyes the whole first week
I dont know for what im searching
Or what ill do when im thirty
But i know that youre the best
And i am not deserving
Never got in 1st Place
But to you was number one
You always made me feel like the sun
Now youre standing in the middle of the field
With a gun
Didn't even give me a chance to run away

[Chorus]
And I don't even care about it
As long as you care about me
Life was better when I was 17
And I don't even care about it
As long as you are happy
Life was better, but at least now I'm free
And I don't even care about it
As long as you care about me
Life was better when I was 17
And I don't even care about it
As long as you are happy
Life was better, but at least now I'm free

[Skit: Jimi Somewhere & Emiliet Jensvoll]
Nah, but I thought I told you all of this a long time ago
Maybe I didn't
You didn't, I didn't know any of this I swear to God
Oh well, you do now I guess and
I hope, I hope it doesn't make you feel any different
Haha

[Chorus]
And I don't even care about it
As long as you care about me
Life was better when I was 17
And I don't even care about it
As long as you are happy
Life was better, but at least now I'm free
At least now I'm free
Yeah, yeah
But at least now I'm free
At least now I'm free

[Outro]
And I don't even care about it
As long as you care about me
Life was better when I was 17
And I don't even care about it
As long as you are happy
Life was better, but at least now I'm free
