Because 7 ate 9 Lyrics

I can't
seem to crawl away
I'm lost and so ashamed
careless but so afraid
my life is fading
every days another test
of fighting my addictions
placing myself in situations
will it ever go away?
situations
will it ever go away?
I used to never dream but now
I have nightmares
will you save me from this darkness?
keep me surrounded
I hear you calling me
I need to feel you
to end my agony and wash it all away
let me feel you
reaching for me
I need to be
I need to be surrounded by you
will it ever go away?
situations
will it ever go away?
situations
I used to never dream but now
I only have night mares
will you save me from this darkness
keep me surrounded
nightmares
nightmares
nightmares...

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.

Whoa. This is a really good song. The meaning is pretty obvious;; The singer is in desperate need of somebody. "I hear you calling me I need to feel you to end my agony and wash it all away let me feel you reaching for me I need to be I need to be surrounded by you"

The singer also needs the person who can get him away from his addictions.

"every days another test of fighting my addictions placing myself in situations"

For me, that certain 'sombody' is God, but it could be different for every person or situation. Hope this helped anyone?

I agree with BrillianPain, and seeing as this is a Christian band, im assuming that they are, indeed, refering to God.
