Cover art for Seventeen lyrics by Marina and the Diamonds

For me, the chorus of this song actually feels very personal to me. I understand what this song truly has to be about, but you can't refute it in my case.

The rise of a king and the fall of a queen Oh, seventeen Never felt like a princess

For me, I'm a 17 year old transgender guy. I came out just before my 17th birthday (today), and to some people, it feels just like this. The rise of a king and the fall of a queen.
