she's just seventeen (can't tell what this word is) and pretty
with a deadly disease
and the weight of the world on a prosthetic shoulder
and by the summer of 96'
her body was cracked like porceline.......

"Untitled 2", originally done by Morrissey but recently covered by Brand New:

She was just seventeen, pious and pretty with a deadly disease
And the weight of the world on a prosthetic shoulder
And by the summer of ‘96 her body was cracked like porcelin
Just like some Precious Moments collectable
In a hospital gown and a big bright golden halo

Chorus:
And so three cheers for my morose and grieving (creeping?) pals
And now let's hear it for the tears that I’ve welled up
We’ve come too far to have to give it all up now
We lived lives that were rich and blessed
And we'll burn for how we transgress

Now I’ve mastered the art
Of the open casket prayer and the singing guitar
I found the rewards weren’t half what I hoped for
And meanwhile, we all feigned hope and nerve
As her parents went on and lied to her
All about the success of the surgeries
And how my ex-girlfriend was now sleeping with her fiancé

Chorus

If there's any justice in heaven, then God won't let me in
He'll lock the gates and take my weekend pass away
With a sympathetic wave, they'll see me off, return my golden crown
While I am cursed to walk the earth for a millennia
I know I deserve worse but it terrifies me and I can't take it anymore

The song is called Untitled 2
The band is called Brand New
The album is Fight off Your Demons (demo)

Here are the rest of the lyrics:
She was just 17;
Pious and pretty with a deadly disease,
And the weight of the world on her prosthetic shoulder.
And by the summer of '96,
Her body was cracked like porcelain.
Just like some precious moments collectible,
In a hospital gown and a big bright golden halo.

And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals.
And now let's hear it for the tears that i've welled up.
We've come too far to have to give it all up now.
We live lives that are rich and blessed,
And we'll burn for how we transgress.

Now I've mastered the art,
Of the open casket prayer, and the singing guitar.
And I've found the rewards weren't half what I'd hoped for
And meanwhile we all feigned hope and mirth,
As her parents went on and lied to her;
All about the success of the surgeries,
And how my ex-girlfriend was now sleeping with her fiance.

And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals.
And now let's hear it for the tears that i've welled up.
We've come too far to have to give it all up now.
We live lives that are rich and blessed,
And we'll burn for how we transgress.

If there's any justice in heaven,
Than God won't let me in.
He'll lock the gates and take my weekend pass away.
With a sympathetic wave they'll see me off.
Reserve my golden crown while I am cursed to walk the earth for a millenia.
I know I deserve worse but it terrifies me and I can't take it anymore.

And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals.
And now let's hear it for the tears that i've welled up.
We've come too far to have to give it all up now.
We live lives that are rich and blessed,
And we'll burn for how we transgress.
