Love Like Blood — 7 Seconds lyrics

Lyrics

Don’t see me from a distance
Don’t look at my smile
And think that I don’t know
What’s under and behind
I don’t want you to look at me and think
Roughneck and rudeness, we should be using
On the ones who practice wicked charms
For the sword and the stone, bad to the bone
Battle’s not over even when it’s won
And when a child is born
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in It’s not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I’ll be waiting
It’s not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I’ll be waiting
I would like us to forget about their color
So they can be optimistic
Too many views on rave that make them desperate
It’s not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I’ll be waiting
It’s not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I’ll be waiting
And when a child is born
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in million voices
There’s a million voices
It’s not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I’ll be waiting
It’s not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I’ll be waiting
