'22
Well I've got a little story to tell
How I got young and lost in the year '22
Started off as an empty shell
And now my page is filled with you
It's not much but I realize
You thought I'd stay for all my time
We're still young but I know time flies
I'm still lost and I'm trying trying to find
Do you know what stays when our tattoos fade?
Will we miss these days
When everything felt new?
To find a place in this day and age
Now I know what I got to do
I think it's time to step out of my cage
I'm 19 but I was born in '22
It's not easy to find myself
Sometimes I miss the days before '22
Old pictures on a dusty shelf
Memories of me and you
Do you know what stays when our tattoos fade?
Will we miss these days
When everything felt new?
To find a place in this day and age
Now I know what I got to do
I think it's time to step out of my cage
I'm 19 but I was born in '22
I'll remember I'll remember
'22
I'll remember I'll remember
'22
So yesterday I ended up in this party
I didn't know anyone
I was so fucking scared and anxious
At some point, something like clicked and I just let loose
And it was fucking amazing
Like for real dude, I swear
If you just say yes and ride those waves
Good things will happen
That's just living life
Take me far away where I thought
That I would never go
I know my moment's waiting but if
I don't take I never would
With the years I know we'll grow
And maybe we'll get it right
Will I find myself tomorrow
If I get lost tonight?
Hung Up
This isn't easy
Everyone was there to see you
I got so lucky
Lost in the party you came out of the blue
You walked up we tried to talk
And now you're tattooed on my mind
I manned up we went for a walk
It's like the planets have aligned
Is it the start of something great?
We've got so little time
Should I take this leap of faith
I want you to be mine
I'm getting tired of loneliness
I was fine but then you came in
You walked in our gaze Locked in
I'm hung up and I don't wanna go back
I'm getting tired of loneliness
I was fine but then you came in
You walked in our gaze Locked in
I'm hung up and I don't wanna go back
I used to go round in circles
You're giving me a new direction
I used to be full of riddles
We've got a true connection
Is it the start of something great?
We've got so little time
Should I take this leap of faith
I want you to be mine
I'm getting tired of loneliness
I was fine but then you came in
You walked in our gaze Locked in
I'm hung up and I don't wanna go back
I'm getting tired of loneliness
I was fine but then you came in
You walked in our gaze Locked in
I'm hung up and I don't wanna go back
My mind goes blind when I'm kissing you
I wanna touch your skin, make sure your true
Say your mine your mine your mine your mine
I just wanna let you know
I'm getting tired of loneliness
I was fine but then you came in
You walked in our gaze Locked in
I'm hung up and I don't wanna go back
Glitters in your Eyes
Where should I start
Came in as a stranger from the dark
Knocking back shots
There were glitters in your eyes
You gave me no doubt
Told me you were broken inside out
So we danced
And there were glitters in your eyes
I don't know
Nothing makes sense tonight
Everything is blurry under neon lights
It's all an illusion
Here we go
Looking for a shortcut to the finish line
A little more fucked up every time
Cutting all ties
Glitters in your eyes
(Ooooh-oooh)
Glitters in your eyes
(Aaaah-aaah)
Thought we were done
Vanished in the darkness you came from
But you called
I saw the glitters in your eyes
I don't know
Should we do this thing tonight
Wanna go dance under neon lights
Will it break the illusion
You told me no
You're looking for a way to the finish line
You're scared to get fucked up another time
You're cutting all ties
Glitters in your eyes
(Ooooh-oooh)
Glitters in your eyes
I can see the sun rise in the sky
You know you can't run can't tell me lies
I see everything
And there were glitters in your eyes
And there were glitters in your eyes
And there were glitters in your eyes
And there were glitters in your eyes
And there were glitters in your eyes
And there were glitters in your eyes
And there were glitters in your eyes
And there were glitters in your eyes
Die Young
Fly a little closer to the stars
Loving you the harder for your scars
Nothing you would do could make it wrong
Coz when I'm on you I ain't scared to die young
(Fly a little closer)
(Loving you the harder)
(Nothing you would do)
(Coz when I'm on you)
Die young
I never expected much to happen
But now you're in my mind
Don't wanna risk seeing it ending
Thinking back all the time
Coz I know it can't be the same without you
You make me feel what I always want to
When I'm lost in your eyes
I close mine and hope that this feeling lasts
Fly a little closer to the stars
Loving you the harder for your scars
Nothing you would do could make it wrong
Coz when I'm on you I ain't scared to die young
(Fly a little closer)
(Loving you the harder)
(Nothing you would do)
(Coz when I'm on you)
Die young
Neons on the ceiling are flashing blue
Light the clouds I'm falling through
I want you every single night
When the time feels right
We can forget everything about it
It's not the same but I'll be fine
I can count on your love right down the line
Fly a little closer to the stars
Loving you the harder for your scars
Nothing you would do could make it wrong
Coz when I'm on you I ain't scared to die young
Fly a little closer
Loving you the harder
Nothing you would do
Coz when I'm on you
I ain't scared to die young
(Fly a little closer)
(Loving you the harder)
(Nothing you would do)
(Coz when I'm on you)
Die young
Ooooh
Have I gone too far
Coz I'm lost in the tunnels of my mind
Can you take me back
I'm afraid of the things that I might find
Can you look me in the eyes
And tell me what you see
When this moment finally dies
What is left of me
4 AM (Interlude)
Saw you fading out of sight
And now I'm castaway at sea
Far removed from everyone
What is left of me
Honey
Hold me closer
Can you hold me through the night
I wanna hear you whisper
Honey
When is it over
Can you tell me it's alright
Stop putting up a fight
Every day and every night
Same old addiction
Bad Love
You're dangerous
I knew it from the start
Victorious
You found a way into my heart
You kept your feelings locked away
But there was nothing I could say
You're dangerous
It's hopeless
You had everything to gain
Remorseless
You know I'm happy with the pain
The taste of midnight cigarettes
A consequence of our mistakes
No hope for us
I know that we'll never be
I don't need your sympathy
Cause your arms are cold
Yeah your arms are cold
And we know
We got some bad love, let's share it together
I hate your guts, but I'm loving the pressure
Just give me one good reason, I'll end it forever
We could've loved but now you're a stranger
We got some bad love, let's share it together
I hate your guts, but I'm loving the pressure
Just give me one good reason, I'll end it forever
We could've loved but now you're a stranger
Talk to me straight I need to know
Give me a reason to let you go
You're like a drug
That I just want to explore
It's not enough
And I keep on wanting more
You hurt me in the perfect ways
We haven't hooked up in two days
You're like a drug
I know that we'll never be
I don't need your sympathy
Cause your arms are cold
But it never gets old
And we know
We got some bad love, let's share it together
I hate your guts, but I'm loving the pressure
Just give me one good reason, I'll end it forever
We could've loved but now you're a stranger
We got some bad love, let's share it together
I hate your guts, but I'm loving the pressure
Just give me one good reason, I'll end it forever
We could've loved but now you're a stranger
Talk to me straight I need to know
Give me a reason to let you go
Talk to me straight I need to know
Give me a reason to let you go
Talk to me straight I need to know
Give me a reason to let you go
Only 18
Weekends come and go
There's no news and you know
It's too much I need your touch
There's nothing left of us
Losing self-control
Stay in bed take it slow
Mend my bruises find excuses
Hide my cuts
And every day is the same
Might be going insane
Give me a choice I need your voice
There's nothing worse than this
You treat this like a game
Say it's all in my brain
Coz I'm a mess I thought you'd guess
But you never do
You might as well scream and shout
You're never gonna throw me out
Who said you could move away
Not say a thing and live on happy
You might as well scream and shout
You broke me inside out
You think you can have your way
Go through your day and forget about me
You're letting those days go by
Always stuck in between
On your knees for this guy
But you're only eighteen
You're letting those days go by
Always stuck in between
On your knees for this guy
But you're only eighteen
I know that you're gone
Don't want to move on
Our time was now, not in a while
You've left an empty seat
Circles in my head
The same thoughts up ahead
Can't escape, won't change the tape
It's playing on repeat
And I know it's too late
But I'll sit and I'll wait
If there's nothing left to save
I'll chase you down into the grave
And when you're buried under
I'll claw my way down over
Despite the years, you'll dry my tears
And we can be together
You're letting those days go by
Always stuck in between
On your knees for this guy
But you're only eighteen
You're letting those days go by
Always stuck in between
On your knees for this guy
But you're only eighteen
Morning Light
I woke up in the morning light
My head's buzzed and it don't feel right
And I wish we were last night
When everything was alright
I get high but I can't get down
So what's the point when you're not around
And I wish we were last night
When everything was alright
We clipped our wings flying close to the sun
Mistaking real life for liquor and fun
The very next day in the glimmer of dawn
I finally realize
Blue lights, smoke screens
How could we see clearly
Late-night love scenes
Stuck in a movie
(And I didn't play myself)
Blue lights, smoke screens
How could we see clearly
Late-night love scenes
Stuck in a movie
(And I didn't play myself)
Walking home and the sky's too real
Drugs are only a one-way deal
And I wish I could still see
The lights swaying around me
And now my feet won't touch the ground
Coz If I try I can't get my head around
All the ways you sway me
I wish we could be carefree
We clipped our wings flying close to the sun
Mistaking our lives for liquor and fun
The very next day in the glimmer of dawn
I finally realize
Blue lights, smoke screens
How could we see clearly
Late-night love scenes
Stuck in a movie
(And I didn't play myself)
Blue lights, smoke screens
How could we see clearly
Late-night love scenes
Stuck in a movie
And I didn't play myself
I never play myself
Every night is the same
We get stuck in this game
'Till the next day
Blue lights, smoke screens
How could we see clearly
Late-night love scenes
Stuck in a movie
(And I didn't play myself)
Flashback
Sometimes I wish that we could go back
We'll run away like it's a flashback
Just you and me
Waking up by your side
Feeling like our love has just died
Feeling like the end of the ride
Gotta chase that thought away
Always in the corner of my mind
You're taking up all of my time
I can never leave you behind
God knows I've tried today
Cause our love was supposed to be easy
And this wasn't part of the plan
Said I would stop if it hurt me
But I don't know if I can
Sometimes I wish that we could go back
We'll run away like it's a flashback
Just you and me
Cause lately we've been overthinking
You've basically become my addiction
And it hurts to see
But all I want is to move on to someone new
But my mind goes back to you
And we know that this love drives us insane
But we take pleasure in the pain
Lately it's been so complicated
Look at all the pain created
I don't want this love to be wasted
With you I would do it again
Our love was supposed to be easy
This wasn't part of the plan
Said I would stop if it hurt me
But I don't know if I can
Sometimes I wish that we could go back
We'll run away like it's a flashback
Just you and me (Yuh)
Cause lately we've been overthinking
You've basically become my addiction
And it hurts to see
But all I want is to move on to someone new
But my mind goes back to you
And we know that this love drives us insane
But we take pleasure in the pain
I want to love again
I want feel what I felt a while ago
Love you like I did before, no pain
I want to love again
I want feel what I felt a while ago
Love you like I did before
Sometimes I wish that we could go back
We'll run away like it's a flashback
Just you and me
