Twenty Two

Twenty Two

Millencolin
(album: For Monkeys)

I´m one year older now since last time I saw you
in case you wanna know, I´m about to say what I´m up to
first of all I´m a sluggard movin´ slow in a clumsy way
some peace of mind is what I want, but that will be the day
I´ve been going with the flow for too long now, this must end
running ´round in circles, I´ve been so far away from myself
searching for the energy and the time to make a change in my life
instead of watching it pass by, get something done while I´m alive.

I´m twenty two, don´t know what I´m supposed to do
or how to be, to get some more out of me.
I´m twenty two, so far away from all my dreams
I´m twenty two, feeling blue.

I try to activate myself the best I can
so that boredom won´t catch up with me, i´ve my daily plan
wake up late, then rehearse a bit with the band, I guess it´s cool?
Later when I´m home again I boil a note or two
then I go to bed that´s what I do.

Afraid that I will be weak forever
I can´t stay in this shape any longer
my life´s just another cliche.
