2,000 Years

2,000 years
I've been gone, long as time
Stars running out it's a crime
Fragile mind is out dusting
And I bust out laughing

Medium tempo
Captain's log
Jotting down more gibberish
I wish I had time to properly describe
How I've been feeling every night

Driving in the car
On our way from afar
Record drum, bass, guitar
Hey Aloha O
Won't you dance a little more
Sling on to the next rhyme

2,000 years
Silver gun, some new friends
City slacker yet again
Robbing stores and stealing cars
Picked up bad habits
Caught up, jailed and sent away
But if I may, I meant to do no harm
I'm only looking out for me, myself and I
Cause I'm the last of my kind

Not a legend here
Not a hero there
Nothing seems fair and square
Why waste my change, payphone
If there's nobody to phone home?
True freedom, it takes time

2,000 years
I've been gone
Long as time
Finally grew a decent spine
Had an unexpected call
From both her parents
And they said that she woke today
Makes me feel great
Found something to look forward to
My debts are due, but I will come through
You missed me at the first hello

Why did you have to go?
I still cling onto dreams
And someday, we will see
Hey aloha O
Rhyme until that last ship sinks
Grab your silver gun
At midnight we shall meet
Hey Aloha O
Adios, Sacramento!
I'm leaving here tonight
