Letra Montezuma de Fleet Foxes original

So now I am older,

Than my mother and father,

When they had their daughter,

Now what does that say about me

Oh how could I dream of,

Such a selfless and true love,

Could I wash my hands of?

Just lookin out for me



Oh man what I used to be

Oh man oh my oh me (x2)



In dirth or in excess

Both the slave and the empress,

Will return to the dirt I guess,

Naked as when they came

I wonder if I'll see,

Any faces above me,

Or just cracks in the ceiling,

Nobody else to blame



Oh man what I used to be,

Oh man oh my oh me (x2)



Gold teeth and gold jewelry

Every piece of your dowry

Throw them into the tomb with me

Bury them with my name

Unless I have someday,

Ran my wandering

In my underway



Oh man what I used to be

Montezuma to tripoli

Oh man oh my oh me
