Since I was seven

Letra

“Seven Years Old” Verse 1 I built a house inside my mind Before I even knew your name. Since I was seven, all I wanted Was someone who would stay. I carried dreams with careful hands, Protected every little flame. I never thought I’d watch them falling, One quiet afternoon. Pre-Chorus Now every room is echoing, Every promise feels undone. I’m staring at the pieces, Wondering where the future’s gone. Chorus So tell me how I’m supposed to breathe When all I knew has disappeared. I’ve cried until my body broke, I’ve run for miles through all these tears. I never knew a heart could ache Enough to make the whole world slow. I thought forever had your face… Now I don’t know. Verse 2 I keep replaying every moment, Looking for the place I failed. Was there a word I should’ve spoken? Was there a road I should’ve taken? Anger turns to empty silence, Silence turns to tears again. Round and round this broken circle, Waiting for it all to end. Pre-Chorus I wanted one door all my life. Now I’m afraid to touch another. If loving means this kind of leaving, Maybe I’ll never love again. Chorus So tell me how I’m supposed to breathe When all I knew has disappeared. I’ve cried until my body broke, I’ve run for miles through all these tears. I never knew a heart could ache Enough to make the whole world slow. I thought forever had your face… Now I don’t know. Bridge But somewhere underneath these ruins There’s a whisper I still hear. Not saying this won’t leave a scar, Not saying morning’s almost here. Only saying through the silence, When I have nothing left to bring… If You’re still holding all tomorrow, Then hold on to me. Final Chorus I don’t know how I’m supposed to heal, I only know I need Your hand. The dreams I carried since a child Have slipped like water through the sand. If all I have tonight is faith The size of one exhausted prayer… Then let tomorrow find me breathing. Lord… meet me there. Outro Since I was seven… I dreamed of forever. Tonight I’ll simply ask For enough grace To see tomorrow.
