Against Me! - 500 Years lyrics
[Against Me! - 500 Years lyrics]
Broke over the marsh
My lungs were filled with sulphur
I was all washed up
Crawled up a storm drain and into a gutter
I had no memory of who I was
Five hundred years, I was a ghost for you
Five hundred years, I was lost for you
There's nothing left of me
I can't move on for 500 years
Five hundred years
I followed coquina sidewalks down
Into the city
The palm rats danced on the telephone
Wires hanging up above me
I knew that his black eyes
Were watching on me
I could feel the heat of the
Flames reaching out for me
Somewhere in the cemetery
I know my corpse is rotting
With a dead heart in my chest
And not a draw left to my breath
Sometimes it feels like I
Have always been here
Sometimes it feels like I will never leave
