Seven Lyrics - The Flood And The Mercy - Ed Kowalczyk

Seven Gallows 

On seven hills with seven suns 

Seven Hangmen 

Sing the dirge and beat the drum 

Take my heart away 

From this place of no return 

and set it far from here 

In the name of all thats good 

How could you leave me this way? 

It's cold outside 

On my knees I pray 

How could you leave me this way 

The lights are low 

Fade into black again 

How could you get me so high 

Just to bring me down 

Into this valley again 

How could you leave me this way 

Seven maidens 

Seven boats and seven seas 

Black wide ocean 

Open up and swallow me 

I can't find my way 

With only stars to be my guide 

I surrender now 

Eviscerate my pride 

How could you leave me this way? 

It's cold outside 

On my knees I pray 

How could you leave me this way 

The lights are low 

Fading to black again 

How could you get me so high 

Just to bring me down 

Into this valley again 

How could you leave me this way 

Could you give a sign today? 

How could you hide your sweet face 

Am I crying here in vain? 

How could you leave me? 

In dark nights unknowing clouds 

They wrap around the 

Sweet soul you gave me 

You can save me 

I'm gonna stand right here 

I'm gonna scream like a little baby 

Call me crazy 

How could you leave me this way? 

It's cold outside 

On my knees I pray 

How could you leave me this way 

The lights are low 

Fading to black again 

How could you get me so high 

Just to bring me down 

Into this valley again 

How could you leave me this way? 

How could you leave me this way
