Chill, chill, chill Chill, chill, chill Chill, chill, chill Traces, many faces Lost in the maze of time Blinded by the darkness That's the start of the seven lives Chill, chill, chill Chill, chill, chill Chill, chill, chill It's too close, but still too far Follow your inner guide Show us who you are, are, are In these seven lives Chill, chill, chill Chill, chill, chill Chill, chill, chill Take it easy Take it easy, take it easy Follow your inner guide Show me who you are In these seven lives It's too close, but still too far Show me who you are In these seven lives Close but still too far Show me who you are In these seven lives

Please picture me in the trees I hit my peak at seven Feet in the swing over the creek I was too scared to jump in But I, I was high in the sky With Pennsylvania under me Are there still beautiful things? Sweet tea in the summer Cross your heart won't tell no other And though I can't recall your face I still got love for you Your braids like a pattern Love you to the Moon and to Saturn Passed down like folk songs The love lasts so long And I've been meaning to tell you I think your house is haunted Your dad is always mad and that must be why And I think you should come live with me And we can be pirates Then you won't have to cry Or hide in the closet And just like a folk song Our love will be passed on Please picture me in the weeds Before I learned civility I used to scream ferociously Any time I wanted I, I Sweet tea in the summer Cross my heart won't tell no other And though I can't recall your face I still got love for you Pack your dolls and a sweater We'll move to India forever Passed down like folk songs Our love lasts so long

Sitting by the window all day thinking of you Watching the days go by, I started to cry But they weren't tears of sadness they only meant I love you And I wanna tell you girl that I, oh, I I'll travel 'round the seven seas for you It's written in the melody I adore you I wrote my love a symphony To show you there's nothing I won't do Baby I'll walk around the China Wall for you If there's a way I'll do it all for you Anything you want me to You know I would do People think I'm crazy, they say I'm just a nothing Letting my life pass me by, believing you're with me Well I can't speak for no one but in my heart I know you love me, yes And that's why I'll always tell you I, oh I, oh I, oh I I'll travel 'round the seven seas for you It's written in the melody I adore you I wrote my love a symphony To show you there's nothing I won't do Baby I'll walk around the China Wall for you If there's a way I'll do it all for you Anything you want me to You know I would do I'll travel 'round the seven seas for you It's written in the melody I adore you I wrote my love a symphony To show you there's nothing I won't do Baby I'll walk around the China Wall for you If there's a way I'll do it all for you Anything you want me to You know I would do Baby, you know I would do, baby, you know I would do I'll travel 'round the seven seas for you It's written in the melody I adore you I wrote my love a symphony To show you there's nothing I won't do Baby I'll walk around the China Wall for you If there's a way I'll do it all for you Anything you want me to You know I would do

One, two, three Why are you hanging on so tight To the rope that I'm hanging from? Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan) Carefully timed it, so let me go And dive into the waves below Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables? Emotional torture from the head of your high table Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring? And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting And I'm getting fucking tired The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ended, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour You make me do too much labour Apologies from my tongue, and never yours Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her The emotional torture, from the head of your high table She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake At least I've gotta try The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid (The capillaries in my eyes are bursting) Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant (If our love died, would that be the worst thing?) Just an appendage, live to attend him (For somebody I thought was my saviour) So that he never lifts a finger (You sure make me do a whole lot of labour) 24-7, baby machine (The calloused skin on my hands is crackin') So he can live out his picket fence dreams (If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?) It's not an act of love if you make her (And the silence haunts our bed chamber) You make me do too much labour
