Vesuvius Lyrics

You sang every word to all of my songs

Sent me paragraphs about how much you love me

The way you defend yourself before you were accused

I heard everything you said, how could this be

It was young love and we fell together

I just wanted you and no one else

The way you held my hand so tight

Protecting me from guys like yourself

Still you stand tall, so grand in the distance

The sickest thing of all, you're smiling with pride

Though you can't find me, I was buried alive

You shared your dreams and I told you mine

You looked inside my soul before you crushed it

The way you disguise your heart made of Stone

You left me in shock and you love it

Still you stand tall, so grand in the distance

The sickest thing of all, you're smiling with pride

Though you can't find me, I was buried alive

Stealing all my glory, stamping on the ashes

You thrive on destruction, come out with no scratches

Glowing in the night, darkness hiding in the day

You are Vesuvius and I was Pompeii

It happened so fast

I fell in love, I was floating

It happened so fast

Pumice rain, you were gloating

Artful deception, it happened so fast

The molten lies were rising

It happened so fast

Why is it surprising

Still you stand tall, so grand in the distance

The sickest thing of all, you're smiling with pride

Though you can't find me, I was buried alive

Stealing all my glory, stamping on the ashes

You thrive on destruction, come out with no scratches

Glowing in the night, darkness hiding in the day

You are Vesuvius and I was Pompeii
