Centuries
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(Du, du, du, du, du, du, du)
(Du, du, du, du, du, du, du)
Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
Hey, hey, hey
Remember me for centuries
Mummified my teenage dreams
No, it's nothing wrong with me
The kids are all wrong
The story's all off
Heavy metal broke my heart
Come on, come on, and let me in
Bruises on your thighs like my fingerprints
And this is supposed to match
The darkness that you felt
I never meant for you to fix yourself
(Du, du, du, du, du, du, du)
(Du, du, du, du, du, du, du)
Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
Hey, hey, hey
Remember me for centuries
And I can't stop till the whole world knows my name
'Cause I was only born inside my dreams
Until you die for me, as long as there is a light, my shadow's over you
'Cause I am the opposite of amnesia
And you're a cherry blossom
You're about to bloom
You look so pretty, but you're gone so soon
(Du, du, du, du, du, du, du)
(Du, du, du, du, du, du, du)
Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
Hey, hey, hey
Remember me for centuries
We've been here forever
And here's the frozen proof
I could scream forever
We are the poisoned youth
(Du, du, du, du, du, du, du)
(Du, du, du, du, du, du, du)
Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
Hey, hey, hey
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
