Twentytwo

Independent, that's how you view yourself Now that you're twentytwo, twentytwo If I could do it, I would stay young for you We could live inside a place Where we'd never have to face All the people who disgrace us And make us hide our face Busted and used, that's how you view your girl Now that she's twentytwo, twentytwo If I could do it, I would stay young for you We could live inside a place Where we'd never have to face All the people who disgrace us And make us hide our face If I could do it, I would fly into the sun I would become warm And I meant it when I said you're my favourite son With your finger that is reaching For the trigger of the gun And you know you've got to prove it To yourself and everyone I do not go quietly Into the night that calls me Even when I'm alone I do not go quietly Into the night that calls me Even when I'm alone If I could do it, I would take her in my arms I would unwrong all his wrongs I could stay here and write a thousand songs Just to show her that the stars Still come out behind the fog There's a light on in the lighthouse You can see it in the dark I do not go quietly Into the night that calls me Even when I'm alone I do not go quietly Into the night that calls me Even when I'm alone I do not go quietly Into the night that calls me Even when I'm alone I do not go quietly Into the night that calls me Even when I'm alone
