17 Lyrics by ZARD

2019

Thought I had it all when I was turned 17

All these Friends around me yeah I fucking a had team

Felt so good swear it had to be a dream

But they got introduced to heroin and lean

Friends turned into ghost and they couldn’t be seen

They’d be strung out for days they couldn't get clean

Days into months
Months turned to Years
My hate turned to tears

Now I grab the same gear
Same gear

Help not use again I’m falling so fast
Help not use again someone saving me
Help not use again I’m falling so fast
Help not use again someone saving me

It was so hard when they started to die
Every single night
Yeah I use to cry
So I hit the bottle
Till its fucking dry
If I don’t see tomorrow
At least you know why


You were poppin Xans as the party
Hadn’t graduated I was still on baradari
Said you’d be back in a minute
I was acting a cynic cause I knew you'd be going right back to the clinic

Came back with some girl
Your eyes were glazed so dead to the world
Said you were tired and headed to the backroom
Just thought you had gotten in a bad mood

But when I found you
Seeing lips so blue
Calling 911

Screaming someone
Save him

We were just kids with some bad drugs
We were just kids with some bad drugs


Help not use again I’m falling so fast
Help not use again someone saving me
Help not use again I’m falling so fast
Help not use again someone saving me

It was so hard when they started to die
Every single night
Yeah I use to cry
So I hit the bottle
Till its fucking dry
If I don’t see tomorrow
At least you know why

It was so hard when they started to die
Every single night
Yeah I use to cry
So I hit the bottle
Till its fucking dry
If I don’t see tomorrow
