Montezuma Lyrics - Helplessness Blues - Fleet Foxes

So now I am older than my mother and father 

When they had their daughter 

Now what does that say about me 

Oh how could I dream of such a selfless and true love 

Could I wash my hands of 

Just looking out for me 

Oh man what I used to be 

Oh man oh my oh me 

Oh man what I used to be 

Oh man oh my oh me 

In dearth or in excess 

Both the slave and the empress 

Will return to the dirt I guess, naked as when they came 

I wonder if I'll see any faces above me 

Or just cracks in the ceiling 

Nobody else to blame 

Oh man what I used to be 

Oh man oh my oh me 

Oh man that I used to be 

Oh man oh my oh me 

Gold teeth and gold jewelry 

Every piece of your dowry 

Throw them into the tomb with me 

Bury them with my name 

Unless I have someday 

Ran my wandering mind away 

Oh man what I used to be 

Montezuma to Tripoli 

Oh man oh my oh me
