7 Years

For seven years I let you waste me
Before I could finally face it
Seven years of isolation
Seven years

When you jumped out into space
And they called it a minor altercation
Seven years of silent waiting
I was really, really patient

I was weak, I was a babe
But I still got in your face
I was ashamed of what you made me
I was afraid I made you crazy

Steal away, if you will
Knowing that I'll protect you still
Steal away, if you will
Steal away

For seven years I let this waste me
Seven years before I could face it
All that time of guilt and shame
I couldn't even say it's name

I felt sure I would be judged
This is between me, God and Satan
I felt sure I would be judged
This is between me, God and Satan
