Seven Days Lyrics

There're seven days below us
That keep me hovered above the ground
And nights just blend into the morning
Definition is the first to go down

If I were to stay here between us
I might forget where I'm bound
So I can't stay in between us
I guess I'll walk away...

And here to read the future
But forced to breathe out the past
And too many conversations
To uncover what was purposefully lost

And we all look so desperate
Showing the guidance that we lack
And we used to be so wistful
I guess we feel it's safer holding back

If I were to stay here between us
I might forget where I'm bound
So I can't stay in between us
I guess I'll walk away...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song seems to me to be about a relationship that never was. The people coming apart and then back together over and over, but never able to fix whatever problem led to the disjointedness. Conversations started by one of the people involved happen often, bringing up the past that person probably buried on purpose, for whatever reason, which is possibly the whole reason things are wrecked now. The speaker's expected to "read the future" and figure out how to make things right, but the way this other person keeps bringing up the past while not really sharing anything("I guess we feel it's safer holding back"), she can't move forward. The speaker is going to walk away, like it's a lost cause, but you can tell she wishes things could be different. So tired of dealing with dead ends it just seems futile to fight anymore.

I love how desperate the strumming sounds.
