Broken Social Scene - Anthems For A Seventeen - Year Old Girl

I’ve fallen in love with dangerous man 
I wish I’d realised before it began
He’s listening to every breath I take 
Hes watching every move I make

But I can’t help the way I feel 
I’ll just romanticise it and forget what’s real 
I should be more than terrified 
What happened to my sweet little girl... our love is just a lie

I’m not ready to die, but I said from the start 
I’d do anything to make him happy, even if it tears me apart
Soon he’ll decorate our rooms with our teeth and our bones 
Pink ribbons adorn them, so frail and delicate to hold

And I can’t keep saying I’ve fallen in love 
If one day I’m gonna end up
As just a pile of bones above the fire place 
Under that framed photo of my face
Him loving me was a felony and even though I fell for him deep
I know someday hes gonna be locked up for eternity 

Do you think this shall ever end
I don't know how much longer I can pretend
I wanted death all the way from the start
It is what it is, til death do us part 

Until death

Til death do us part

Stood trying to remember what I look like in the mirror
What does real life really feel like?
I don’t remember what I’m supposed to feel

Am I dead?
Or am I in a dream?
Am I a ghost watching what my life would’ve been?

I can’t feel
Times not real
Life’s not real
I’m not real

Nothing is real, ohh, ohh
Nothing is real, ohh, ohh

(I don’t think I belong on this planet
This galaxy, this universe 
I don’t think I belong at all)

What am I here for? 
What is my purpose? 
Or am I even here?
What can I trust?
I don’t know who really exists
I don’t remember who anybody is

Do I know them?
Can they see me?
Can they hear me? 
Can they feel me?
Do they know me?
Do they know who I am?

I can’t feel
Times not real
Life’s not real
I’m not real

Nothing is real, ohh, ohh
I can’t feel, time’s not real 
Life’s not real, no I’m not real

I’m lost
I don’t belong, no 
I can’t do it, I don’t know who’s real I don’t know what’s real 
Anymore, ha
(No more, no more)
