22 Dollars

You don't know how long I've waited for a friend
I've been wanting to feel alive, at least for the weekend
Everyone's asleep, caught up in the heat
Time is standing still and I wanna get lost again

You don't know how good it feels to finally breathe
After a while, treading water isn't so easy
I can take the pain, learn to walk again
So please, be kind and bolt the door after I walk free

I'm gonna take every moment
Feel the wind as it fills my chest
I've got a couple of Lemon Heads
22 dollars and nothing else

Cause I wanna lose this thing called time
Take a step forward and cross the line
I don't have a plan, and I don't need a map
Cause the road I'm taking will never lead me back, no no

When you grow up on the outside looking in
You forget how hot the gaze of the world is on the skin
Diving in too deep, not looking where I leap
Trying to pull a warrior out of the depths within

I can teach myself to get by on a dime
But to toughen up your heart, now that takes a lifetime
The future lies ahead, no skin left to shed
So write me a letter when I'm the other side, cause I'm

I'm gonna take every moment
Feel the wind as it fills my chest
I've got a couple of Lemon Heads
22 dollars and nothing else

Cause I wanna lose this thing called time
Take a step forward and cross the line
I don't have a plan, and I don't need a map
Cause the road I'm taking will never lead me back, will never lead me back

Oooooh
Oooooh
Oooooh
Oooooh oooooh

There'll be times when I am swimming
And the water feels like lead
But I'll keep on believing that there's light at the end

I'm gonna take every moment
Feel the wind as it fills my chest
I've got a couple of Lemon Heads
22 dollars and nothing else

Cause I wanna lose this thing called time
Take a step forward and cross the line
I don't have a plan, and I don't need a map
Cause the road I'm taking will never lead me back, will never lead me back, no no

Oooooh
Oooooh
Oooooh
Oooooh oooooh
