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 beaty 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
