"Seven Years Alone" lyrics - DEVIL YOU KNOW

DEVIL YOU KNOW
"Seven Years Alone"
(Francesco Artusato / Howard Jones / Logan Mader / John Sankey)

[Intro:]
Go!

There's sin in my heart, but I stand accused
Of crimes that I did not commit
Tried and confined, judged by your eyes
But I am an innocent man
Bound and forsaken, liberty taken
A life in the void is now transformed into a life destroyed

[Chorus:]
Seven years alone, eighteen more to go
The curse of time ain't on my side
But I will not let go
I will not let go

Into the fray, I am the prey
Fear is the air that I breathe
Imprisoned by hate, ensnared by my fate
I wish for nothing but to escape
My mind drifts away to once better days
Order once reigned where I've never seen true corruption

[Chorus:]
Seven years alone, eighteen more to go
The curse of time ain't on my side
But I will not let go
I will not go

[Bridge:]
I will not be held, I won't be contained
Tear down the walls, nothing remains, go
Nothing remains

[Refrain:]
Tried and confined, judged by your eyes
But I am an innocent man

[Chorus/Outro]
Seven years alone, eighteen more to go (Eighteen more to go)
The curse of time ain't on my side
But I will not let go
I will never let go
I will not let go
I will never let go
