Eternally 12 Lyrics

[Hook]
Eternal Eternal Eternally 12
Eternal Eternal Eternally 12
Eternal Eternal Eternally 12
Eternal Eternal Eternally 12 (yeah)

[Verse 1]
I always knew I'd been here before
If only I could remember what I learned (remember what I learned)
The first time that I smelled the burn
Would I be beautiful
Somebody you could hold high (somebody you could hold)

[Bridge]
Ooh another day
Ooh another day
Woah another day
Woah another day

[Verse 2]
Seven days ago I was a child (child my shoulder)
Heavy weight surprised me on my shoulder
No good advice could shelter me from time (time)
Don't say I'll understand it when I'm older (I’m older)
My name sounds ancient but I'm still anxious like the first time I smelled the burn
Will I ever learn?
I pull my hair out I drown myself out
Another day long another day gone
Another day, long
Another day, gone

[Outro]
I let it go
I let it go
I let it go
(x4)

I let it grow
I let it grow
I let it grow
(x3)

I let it grow
I let it grow
I let it grow out

Mac DeMarco:
TAKE IT, MEL!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
