lyrics

Seven Years and 27 days
and countless different ways
that I have suffered

For seven years I’ve kept my peace
and the faith I’ve placed in you
but now I wonder

I fought the law and I fought the urge
to fall in love and we
we fought together

A twist of fate, an itching need
was how we came to be
and how we ended

One more time around
We both know that I don’t belong in here
I’ve carried our cross
I’m not the one to blame

One more time around
and the seven years that I have given you
if silence is a crime
then I’m guilty as charged

Seven Years and 27 ways
in which I blame myself and we
we blame each other

What we did we did so we
could feel limitless and free
and love each other

One more time around
We both know that I don’t belong in here
I’ve carried our cross
I’m not the to blame

One more time around
and the seven years of pain I’ve given you
If suffering is a crime
then I’m guilty as charged

Now it’s time to cut my losses
now there’s no looking back
The time for reconciliation
has come and gone my friend

We have severed our old ties and
and counted up the cost
Sick of waiting
I am changing

One more time around
This time I’m gonna pass it onto you
You can carry this cross
and carry the shame

One more time around
This time I’m gonna stand my ground with you
If anger is a crime
then I’m guilty as charged
