Seven Seconds Songtext
von The Band Perry

I just need to stop right now
Think I′m really lost right now
I'm just so exhausted now
Feeling all this pressure now

I just wanna waste all day
Chill out and play some video games
Smoke out on my boyfriend′s couch
Sometimes I wanna just peace out
Just peace out

Seven seconds
Seven seconds in heaven
Give me seven seconds
Just to get out of my head and gimme
Seven seconds
Just to find a little zen
And give me seven seconds
Seven seconds in heaven


Take me to the minute I was feelin' like a star
Take me to the minute we got twisted in your car
Take me for a minute and I know we can escape
Give me seven seconds 'cause I need to get away
The minute that we felt like we was flyin′ in the sky
The minute we were suiciding down Mulholland Drive
Take me to the minute when the world still had a vibe
Give me seven seconds ′cause I need to feel alive

Are you home tonight?
Drop out, let's watch some Walter White
Forget about the scene and then
Lay back and let the night fade in

I wanna decompress with you
I′m tired of living in a zoo
I think I'm done with all the hate
I′m thinking that the world can wait

Seven seconds
Seven seconds in heaven
Give me seven seconds
Just to get out of my head and gimme
Seven seconds
Just to find a little zen
And give me seven seconds
Seven seconds in heaven


Take me to the minute I was feelin' like a star
Take me to the minute we got twisted in your car
Take me for a minute and I know we can escape
Give me seven seconds ′cause I need to get away
The minute that we felt like we was flyin' in the sky
The minute we were suiciding down Mulholland Drive
Take me to the minute when the world still had a vibe
Give me seven seconds 'cause I need to feel alive

Celestial beings on celestial thrones
Can one of y′all pick up your cellular phones?
Celestial beings in celestial homes
We make such a mess when you leave us alone

Gimme seven seconds
Seven seconds in heaven
Gimme seven seconds
Just to get out of my head and
Gimme seven seconds
To get a little less conscious
Seven seconds
Then I′ll get back to the nonsense
Seven seconds
Oh, it's something I deserve
Seven seconds
Ya′ll it's something that I earned
Gimme seven seconds
And I′ll find a little zen
Seven seconds
Seven seconds in heaven

Take me to the minute I was feelin' like a star
Take me to the minute we got twisted in your car
Take me for a minute and I know we can escape
Give me seven seconds ′cause I need to get away
The minute that we felt like we was flyin' in the sky
The minute we were suiciding down Mulholland Drive
Take me to the minute when the world still had a vibe
Give me seven seconds 'cause I need to feel alive

Seven seconds
Give me seven seconds
Seven seconds
Seven seconds
Seven seconds in heaven
