Navigating the Turbulence of Seventeen: Unraveling the Meaning
Lyrics
I know something you don't
I have knowledge that you are unaware of
You think you know it all but you won't
You believe you understand everything, but you don't
We don't speak these days like I thought we would
Our communication has changed from what I expected
I wanna go back to being the top of your world
I desire to return to the position of importance in your life
My god, there it goes, another thought I couldn't let go
Expressing the difficulty of letting go of a particular thought
My god, there it is, he's saying I'm too young for this
Someone suggests the speaker is too young for something
Do my thoughts mean a thing if i never know what I mean?
Questioning the significance of thoughts if the speaker doesn't understand them
He said, my god, you're only seventeen
A statement about the speaker being only seventeen years old
A few mistakes and I rock what we built together
Acknowledging mistakes made, possibly in a relationship
I always thought blood was thicker than water
Reflecting on the belief that family bonds are stronger than others
But you tossed me out sink or swim jsut like I taught you
Feeling abandoned and left to fend for oneself, as taught by the person in question
If you keep on pushing this hard I'll only fall over
A warning that excessive pressure will lead to a fall
But I know something you don't
Reiteration of possessing knowledge the other person lacks
You think you know it all but you won't
Repeating the idea that the other person doesn't truly understand everything
My god, there it goes, another thought I couldn't let go
Revisiting the difficulty of letting go of certain thoughts
My god, there it is, he's saying I'm too young for this
Reiteration of being considered too young for something
Do my thoughts mean a thing if i never know what I mean?
Questioning the value of thoughts without understanding their meaning
He said, my god, you're only seventeen
Restating the declaration that the speaker is only seventeen
Seventeen
Repeating the age, emphasizing its significance
And I'm all off running fast as I can [?]
Expressing the urgency of running away quickly
You'll never catch me, I'll never let you win
Declaring an intention not to be caught or defeated
'Cause I know something you don't
Reiterating the possession of unique knowledge
My god, there it goes, another thought I couldn't let go
Revisiting the difficulty of letting go of certain thoughts
My god, there it is, he's saying I'm too young for this
Reiteration of being considered too young for something
Do my thoughts mean a thing if i never know what I mean?
Questioning the value of thoughts without understanding their meaning
He said, my god, you're only seventeen
Restating the declaration that the speaker is only seventeen
My god, there it goes, another thought I couldn't let go
Revisiting the difficulty of letting go of certain thoughts
My god, there it is, he's saying I'm too young for this
Reiteration of being considered too young for something
Do my thoughts mean a thing if i never know what I mean?
Questioning the value of thoughts without understanding their meaning
He said, my god, you're only seventeen
Restating the declaration that the speaker is only seventeen
My god, there it goes, another thought I couldn't let go
Revisiting the difficulty of letting go of certain thoughts
My god, there it is, he's saying I'm too young for this
Reiteration of being considered too young for something
Do my thoughts mean a thing if i never know what I mean?
Questioning the value of thoughts without understanding their meaning
He said, my god, you're only
Final restatement of the declaration that the speaker is only seventeen
