22 is too many

22 shattered lives in the ground 
Each one deeper than the one before
How do we stop the pain
How can the sanity be regained 
How do we stop that movie each night 
That plays when our eyes are closed tight
22 is too many broken hearts
Too many broken parts
One 22 breaks 100 more
Why can’t we close that door
The ledge is crowded
Footsteps in the dark
Every step louder
Every soul marked
We’re falling fast
We’re falling hard
And nobody can fix us
Why can't they fix us
Echoes in the canyon
Crying out for light
Shadows in the alleys
Disappearing from sight
Who holds the pieces
Who saves the fight
Take this from my hand
Stop me from being buried in the land
One 22 breaks 100 more
I don't want to break you
Please close the door 
Sit with me until I get through the night 
Please keep the shadows from my sight
Take this from my hand
Stop me from being buried in the land
Stop that movie each night 
That plays when my eyes are closed tight
Sit with me until I get through the night 
Please keep the shadows from my sight
22 is too many broken hearts
Too many broken parts
One 22 breaks 100 more
Why can’t we close that door
