Twenty Two (feat. François Simitchiev)

I knew a man who was not scared to die

He's the type to find out, there's no more to hide

Twenty-two years ago, he drowned his own shadow

Into the powder of ugly battles

But one hour before dying

He begged to be surrounded

By someone he could talk to

A warm hand to hold on to

He stays down

He stays down

He stays down

He stays down

The man was once in love, but couldn't keep up

"Life's not made of gold", he said, "I should have known"

Desperately looking for a trick or two

He once sold his own soul and asked for more

But one hour before dying

He begged to be surrounded

By someone he could talk to

A warm hand to hold on to

He stays down

He stays down

He stays down

He stays down

Someone he could talk to

A warm hand to hold on to

Got no arms to call his home

Got no one to call his own
