Coming Clean

seventeen and strung out on confusion
consumed in my own world of disillusion
I'm finding out about the world
mum and dad will have to accept
I'm my own girl

I've got secrets never to be told
maybe best those i forget
then they won't be found
the skeletons from my closet

I'm finding out about the world
sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll untwirled
mum and dad will have to accept
I'm my own girl

seventeen should I be coming clean?
for the first time
I'm finally figuring out myself
finding out about the world
discovering me and who me is

mum and dad will never understand
coming clean think I'll forget
let the skeletons collect dust
deep inside my closet

Ok I honestly didn't think I'd be able to do this thought it might be forced but i picked a suiting song \

    Good work! I love the whole idea of keeping secrets! In fact, I believe we should all have a secret for ourselves...makes it more exciting!
