Seven Hours - Little May

You said I’m all you ever needed

But you don’t want me all the time

Imagine us living by a river

I was your shotgun bride

James was telling secrets

And you held my fingers

As you drive me away

Tie me up again, bribe me away

You said she’s all you ever needed

We’re just strangers with copper bindings

Need you to give me back my lungs

So my body can forgive me slow

And I can fight this with my hands

But my head won’t let me, you’re still here

I know that you’ve seen all the ways that my body can talk

But I never heard it like, I never heard it like that

So far from your hands, before, now I’m telling it was more

The binds are tight as we bite our tongue again

You said she’s all you ever needed

We’re just strangers with copper bindings

Need you to give me back my lungs

So my body can forgive me slow

And I can fight this with my hands

But my head won’t let me, you’re still here

I know that you’ve seen all the ways that my body can talk

But I never heard it like, I never heard it like that

And I can fight this with my hands

But my head won’t let me, you’re still here
