American Pompeii

I try to imagine the best place

I've beenCan

I go back again?

Open my eyes, what was no longer exists

I can't go back again

I like to pretend that nothing has changed

And never went too far

But it started to lose me like a four-hour movie

I'd already seen

Holding onto my memory

Of what this used to be

Holding onto my memory of you

Sometimes

I tell myself that things are okay

Another lie but it makes me feel better

Never as old as

I was today,

I'm gonna breakdown

In American

American Pompeii

Break myself just to live this way

Never as old as

I was today

American Pompeii

Look in my eyes and see how sick

I feelAbout what you've become

Filthy and twisted like you never existed

I know what you were

Your beauty forgotten under mountains of schism

I don't want to climb

Giving up my memory of what this used to be

Giving up my memory of you

Sometimes

I tell myself that things are okay

Another lie but it makes me feel better

Never as old as

I was today,

I'm gonna breakdown
