Twenty Two Lyrics by Quix56

2022

[Verse 1]
No circadian rhythm, no idea if it's day or night
Might not even survive the twilight if I don’t pull myself back together and face the music
First year as a student was easy, believe me
I didn't drink nor drive myself to the brink of another existential crisis for nothing
Let’s sneak out under the cover of night
But remain outcasts from the outlaws we fight
Despite my circular nature I’ll never fit in anywhere

[Bridge]
My soul knows what I did wrong
My soul knows what I didn’t do

[Chorus]
So why oh why did I fail so easily?
Supposed to be an escapе from reality
At only twenty two I’m getting oldеr and older
A whole world of regret forged on my shoulder
So why oh why did I fail so easily?
Supposed to be an escape from reality
Supposed to be the best days of your life
Whole world full of strife
Now I’m under the knife you left me

[Verse 2]
Second First Year
Oh the shame it bleeds through the windowframe
Turn up two minutes late, turn around again
And go home again, better luck next time
Third First Year, I guess it wasn’t meant to be
Will I still be here when I’m thirty three?
Will I even have anything to show for this escapade?

[Bridge]
Cause my soul knows what I did wrong
(Tell me the truth to your madness)
My soul knows what I didn’t do
(And It knows I could do better than that
My soul won’t let me sleep, my guilty memories
Keep me tossing and turning through the night
The voices roast me alive
They won’t fade away)

[Chorus]
So why oh why did I fail so easily?
Supposed to be an escape from reality
At only twenty two I’m getting older and older
A whole world of regret forged on my shoulder
So why oh why did I fail so easily?
Supposed to be an escape from reality
Supposed to be the best days of your life
Whole world full of strife
Now I’m under the knife you left me

[Bridge]
Who-oh
Tell me the truth to your madness
Whooo-ooohhh
And it knows I could better than that
My soul won’t let me sleep, my guilty memories
Keep me tossing and turning through the night
The voices roast me alive
They won’t fade away
They won’t fade away

[Chorus]
So why oh why did I fail so easily?
Supposed to be an escape from reality
Supposed to be the best days of your life
Whole world full of strife
Now I’m under the knife you left me
So why did I fail, so why did I fail?
So why did I fail, so why did I fail?
At only twenty two I’m getting older and older
A whole world of regret forged on my shoulder

(Older and older, older and older)
So why did I fail, so why did I fail?
So why did I fail, so why did I fail?
