Anthrax - American Pompeii Lyrics
I try to imagine the best place Ive beenCan I go back again?Open my eyes, what was no longer exists,I cant go back againI like to pretend that nothing has changedAnd never went too farBut it started to lose me like a four-hour movieId already seenHolding onto my memory of what this used to beHolding onto my memory of youSometimes I tell myself that things are o.k.Another lie but it makes me feel betterNever as old as I was todayIm gonna breakdownIn american pompeiiIn american pompeiiBreak myself just to live this wayNever as old, as I was todayAmerican pompeiiLook in my eyes and see how sick I feelAbout what youve becomeFilthy and twisted like you never existedI know what you wereYour beauty forgotten under mountains of schismI dont want to climbGiving up my memory of what this used to beGiving up my memory of youSometimes I tell myself that things are o.k.Another lie but it makes me feel betterNever as old as I was todayIm gonna breakdownIn american pompeiiIn american pompeiiBreak myself just to live this wayNever as old, as I was todayAmerican pompeiiTry to imagine the best place Ive beenCan I go back againOpen my eyes it just no longer existsI cant go back againIm giving up my memory of what this used to beGiving up my memory of you
