I’VE BEEN HERE A BILLION YEARS

BY JAY WELLER

 

A SINGLE STAND AGAINST A DEAD MAN’S EIGHT

SET UPON BY THE MAGISTRATE

SUNK A SWORD INTO MY NECK

CRASHIN’ DOWN LIKE A PIRATE’S WRECK

 

I’VE BEEN HERE A BILLION TIMES BEFORE

SLID OFF THE BACK OF A DINOSAUR

BURNED BY THE FIRE OF KING ARTHUR’S PYRE

BLUE BY THE RAGE OF MAD DESIRE

 

A SINGLE STAND AGAINST A DEAD MAN’S EIGHT

SET UPON BY THE MAGISTRATE

SUNK A SWORD INTO MY NECK

CRASHIN’ DOWN LIKE A PIRATE’S WRECK

 

THE RAFTERS SNAP AND THE FABRIC TEARS

THE SEA RUSH IN, BUT I HAVE NO FEAR

BECAUSE I’VE BEEN HERE A BILLION YEARS

I’VE BEEN HERE A BILLION YEARS
