Lucy Spraggan - You're Too Young Lyrics
She was so clever for her age as a kidShe took pride in everything she ever said and didShe was born as an angelTicked every box in the listHow could someone so beautiful end up like this?She was bought up in an everyday council estateHad friends and family who were never too far awayEven as a kid she'd sometimes loose her temperAnd if attentions being givenGuaranteed she's in the centreSchool was a struggleResult of her behaviourExcluded for the fightsThe same a few days later'Cause when she got angry, she'd flip, see redYour too pretty for the violence her mum always saidShe has high aspirationsShe was chasing the dreamUntil her first conviction at the age of fourteenShe nearly killed a girl just for looking the wrong waySmashed her head so hard against the groundShe was unconscious for daysPassers by stop to witness the tortureWhile she stamped on the head of a policeman's daughterNo remorse, for the course, of a Magistrates courtIf was everybody else's fault of courseWhat you doin' with your night?Your too young to ruin your lifeWhat you doin' with your life?Your too young to die tonightAfter that things began to slip out of gripAnd her grades were failing but she didn't give aShe was top dog at schoolAnd all the girls were scaredAnd when she walked through the corridor all the boys staredShe craved to be wanted, she didn't care howShe wanted everything including this guy Ben she liked nowHe was 19, liked fighting, and smoking the greenHe was a dreamer, had a beamerShe thought he was a dreamShe got his number, Are you ok?Text back, Chelsea PriceIt was Monday they agreed to meet up on Friday nightShe played it coolThe whole week she wondered what to wearShe planned her jewellery, her make-upHer shoes and her hairThe days went so slow, her school was so boringBut before she knew it, it was already Friday morningShe was nervous and scared, but in a good wayShe has no idea that this was no ordinary dayWhen she walked down the stairs, it was seven o'clockHe was coming at eight, she had to iron her topSeven forty five came and she looked gorgeousRapunzel let out too early from the fortressWhat you doin' with your night?Your too young to ruin your lifeWhat you doin' with your life?Your too young to die tonightShe gets in the car, says hi, they drive offThey head to a car park, where he can skin upShe gets into conversation, nods and smilesAnd she feels so happy and not even shyA girl pulls up, she see's Ben and screamsHe puts the car in gear and gets ready to leaveThis girl gets out of the car and stands in frontShe screams, that's my boyfriend, get out you littleChelsea turns to Ben who just shrugsShe don't believe herShe's never been scared and she's not today eitherShe puts her hand on the door and gets out to fightShe's angry now this ***** has just ruined her nightThe two girls clash, hair pulling, fists flyingChelsea see's blood gushingThe other steps back cryingChelsea grins as she thinks she's wonThen she looks at Ben's face who's completely stunnedThen. there's a pain in the middle of her stomachThe bloods on her t-shirtThe other girl starts runningChelsea heart starts pumping, panic sets in moreAs she looks down at the pool of bloodAnd there's a knife on the floorWhat you doin' with your night?Your too young to ruin your lifeWhat you doin' with your life?Your too young to die tonightShe hears tight screeches, she's losing too much bloodBen's cars gone, he's got a boot full of drugsShe lies there, eyes wide open, facing the skyThoughts fly out of her mind as she questions whyHer last movements are the tears she's cryingShe thinks about her family as she lies there dyingShe's alone on her own because of the violenceCan't hear people or friends or help or sirensShe whispers I'm sorry, there's no one on the wayAs she returns to an angel, And her soul slips awayWhat you doin' with your night?Your too young to ruin your lifeWhat you doin' with your life?Your too young to die tonight
