Brand New Heavies Seventy Times 7 Lyrics

Seventy Times 7 Lyrics

Back in school they never taught us 
what we needed to know 
Like how to deal with despair 
or someone breakin your heart 
For twelve years I've held it all together 
but a night like this is beggin to pull me apart 
I played it quiet left you deep in conversation 
I felt uncool and hung out around the kitchen 
I remember I kept thinking 
that I know you never would 
And now I know I want to kill you 
like only a best friend could 

Everyone's caught on to everything you do 
Everyone's caught on to... 

As if it happening wasn't enough 
I got to go and write a song 
just to remind myself how bad it sucked 
Ignore the sun, covers over my head 
Wrote a message on my pillow that says 
"Jesse, stay asleep in bed" 
Don't apologize (I hope you choke and die!) 
Search your cell for something which to hang yourself 
They say you need to pray 
if you want to go to heaven 
But they don't tell you what to say 
when your whole life has gone to Hell! 

Everyone's caught on to everything you do 
Everyone's caught on to... 
(and I can't let you let me down again) 
Everyone's caught on to everything you do 
(and I can't let you let me down again) 
Everyone's caught on to... 

So is that what you call a getaway? 
Tell me what you got away with 
Cause I've seen more spine on jellyfish 
I've seen more guts on eleven-year-old kids 
Have another drink and drive yourself home 
I hope there's ice on all the roads 
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt 
and again when your head goes through the windshield 

Is that what you call tact? 
You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back 
So let's end this call and end this conversation 
And is that what you call a getaway? 
Tell me what you got away with 
Cause you left the frays from the ties you severed 
when you say "best friends" means friends forever 

Is that what you call a getaway?!! 
Tell me what you got away with!! 
Cause I've seen more spine on jellyfish!! 
I've seen more guts on eleven-year-old kids!! 
Have another drink and drive yourself home!! 
I hope there's ice on all the roads!! 
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt 
then when your head goes through the windshield!! 

(I can't let you let me down again) 
Everyone's caught on to everything you do 
(and I can't let you let me down again) 
Everyone's caught on to... 
(I can't let you let me down again) 
Everyone's caught on to everything you do 
(and I can't let you let me down again) 
Everyone's caught on to...
