Songtext von 22 Years

It started like any other, just another year But soon enough, it became my darkest fear Every door I opened led me to a wall Every step forward felt like another fall No warning, no signs, just a downward spiral fast I let it take control, and the pain, it never passed Twenty-two years, the worst I’ve ever known Every mistake, it cut straight to the bone I didn’t even fight, I let it all unfold Now the weight of it all still leaves me cold Twenty-two years, when everything fell apart The pain sank deep and shattered my heart I watched the world turn darker with each passing day Hoped for a miracle that never came my way Every plan I made crumbled in my hands Like building castles in the sinking sand No strength, no light, just shadows on my mind And in the mess I made, no peace I could find Twenty-two years, the worst I’ve ever known Every mistake, it cut straight to the bone I didn’t even fight, I let it all unfold Now the weight of it all still leaves me cold Twenty-two years, when everything fell apart The pain sank deep and shattered my heart But now the memory haunts me like a ghost in the night I replay every moment, every wrong I didn’t fight I wish I could go back, but the time’s out of reach And the pain still lingers like a wound that won’t heal Twenty-two years, now it’s all in the past But the memory still cuts, it’ll forever last I didn’t even fight, I let myself break And now the echo of it keeps me awake Twenty-two years, it carved deep inside The pain still haunts me, no matter how I hide
