American Pompeii Lyrics - Stomp 442 - Anthrax

I try to imagine the best place I've been 

Can 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 O.K. 

Another lie but it makes me feel better 

Never as old as I was today 

I'm gonna breakdown 

In American Pompeii 

In 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 feel 

About 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 O.K. 

Another lie but it makes me feel better 

Never as old as I was today 

I'm gonna breakdown 

In American Pompeii 

In American Pompeii 

Break myself just to live this way 

Never as old, as I was today 

American Pompeii 

Try to imagine the best place I've been 

Can I go back again 

Open my eyes it just no longer exists 

I can't go back again 

I'm giving up my memory of what this used to be 

Giving up my memory of you
