Eleven To Your Seven Lyrics - Everynight Fire Works - Hey Mercedes

A complicated sunset 

Sets the mood within the room 

All bets are up and 

We keep looking down 

To try and find 

The will to turn this around. 

I spent the last three months 

In mental traction 

Woeing all I could forsee 

I slept myself free and 

Cursed at all awake 

The medicine I'd take. 

I broke down 

On the train to southtown 

Midway inbound 

Eleven to your seven 

I held out 

Carrying this crutch around 

Angry words came rushing out 

Eleven to your seven. 

Now I could pound on the keys so hard and 

Make the mallets slap the strings and 

Pump the pedals till I'm breathless and 

Sing off key and 

Wouldn't that be just like me? 

Now people in the back yell hey 

When they see me today 

I got a smile so wide it stems offstage 

They say go go you gone soul and 

For all I know 

They now know 

Oh no. 

You broke down 

As I tore the pages out 

During all the painful parts 

Eleven to your seven 

You held out 

Carrying your diary around 

Angry ink came rushing out 

Eleven to your seven. 

So we finished the night and 

We laud the long ride 

Because it leads to my own bed 

So at least tonight 

My head will be alright. 

We broke down 

Miles out of Morgantown 

A midnight rainstorm crashing down 

Not one breathing soul around 

Eleven to your seven.
