Title: Forever 17
Post by: mickbrit55 on March 10, 2013, 04:55:18 PM

A disturbing song about a serial killers victim.

Words and Music : Mick Lovering/Steve Perrett

Steve Perrett : Guitars / Drums / Synths / Bass
Mick Lovering : Guitar


Forever Seventeen

The information highway
Hit stop signs in her head
Preaching at the pulpit
For a dream already dead

Cream cakes in the ashtrays
Lightning in your dream
The bullet in her brain
Makes her forever seventeen

<CH>
Forever seventeen
The ultimate beauty queen
You will reign supreme
Forever seventeen

Time lapse photography
Liaisons with the dead
Laughing at the Jackal
As it runs around your head

Kissing sticky duct tape
The plastic bag obscene
A shackle on her leg
Makes her forever seventeen

<CH>

<BRIDGE>
What makes a man love you like that
What puts the bullet into your hat
Who pulls the gun
Who pops the dream
Who tears the flesh
When you are only seventeen

Facebook made her certain
That dreams become nightmares
In a world that's black and white
Where no one really cares

Stillness in the culvert
For ninety days unseen
The bullet in her head
Makes her forever seventeen

Blimey, Mick. That's pretty dark stuff.

Music picks up nicely....almost a "funeral march" feel to it. Nice solo.....wails nicely as if the girls spirit is crying out.

Excellent stuff.
