Against Me! - 500 Years lyrics

[Verse 1] I opened my eyes as sunlight 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Bridge] 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 [Chorus]
