[Verse 1]
Took some time for you to see me
Just wanted you to know I think that you're the bees knees
Can't look you in the eyes, I stare at my feet
Hold you tight, wouldn't want you to leave
Maybe I'll try
To come to school once in a while, just to see you
You said goodbye
And to this day, thinking about it makes me feel blue

[Chorus]
I always said I feel like I'm purgatory
I hope that it gets better when I'm seventeen

[Verse 2]
Turning my pictures around
'Cause we both know everything looks better upside down
Should I dye my hair back to brown?
It's been a while since I saw you down town
Maybe it's time that I shaved my head and bought some new clothes
You'll ask me why, and to that, I'll say that I don't know

[Chorus]
I always said I feel like I'm purgatory
I hope that it gets better when I'm seventeen
[Bridge]
I don't care about being on my own
Actually, I do but I don't want you to know
I don't care about being on my own
Actually, I do but I don't want you to know

[Chorus]
I always said I feel like I'm purgatory
I hope that it gets better when I'm seventeen
