Jonathan Dixon - 22nd Avenue Lyrics

I could be singing this forever, I'll write another song if it makes you feel better
Let my words wrap your skin like a sweater
And make sure you're warm enough for this weather
Let go of all your stress over
Things you can't control, things you feel like you can't get over
And if it is all your fault, take it with a grain of salt
That is how you go into the avenue of twenty-two

I'll just pick up my six-string and
Come up with a melody
Write down some things you need
To hear from a guy like me

Hold my hand of the place you know as the place where goals die
And ambitions go to get lost on the road I know that you're feeling cold
When you have a heavy load of people bringing
You down to the place of show, where people go to hide what they know
To be true that we are crude when we are blue

If only they could see what they're doing to me
Would they stop and think about how I'm doing?
(How I'm doing. What am I doing? Where am I going?)

Stop and breathe. Pause and be anything, everything you aspire to be
In your mind, in your dreams of singing
When you feel attacked call me, you have my number
We can talk about whatever, just as long as you stay on earth for sure

I wanna see you succeed, hold on to the little hope you have
It's all you've got, make it last!

Twenty-Second avenue is the path that you'll always choose
When they hit you with the truth, when they give you all the blues
Twenty-Second avenue drive will make you feel the most alive
When they kill you on the inside, when they try to get in your mind
Cause at twenty-second avenue people who are like you
Gather here when they feel blue cannot think anything new
Just try to get out of your mind, they are only thoughts and I
Know this cause I used to lie about how I really feel inside
In all honesty, I probably should not be giving out advice, 'cause I have nothing
To say that has not been said before, but I think that you need to endure

Maybe you are selfish, but to me you're worth it
I care about you even if you think you
Don't deserve it, but I know you deserve it
Let me in so I can help you
(I just want to help you)
