Centuries Lyrics

Cover art for Centuries lyrics by Fall Out Boy

This song sounds a lot like it's in the POV of a school shooters or it's about them. How many of them have written or have said that they want to be remembered forever? This person sounds damaged "No, it's nothing wrong with me/The kids are all wrong", "The bruises on your thighs like my fingerprints"

"Until you die for me, as long as there is a light, my shadow's over you" - the Columbine Killers talked about feeling like a God as they walked over students and deciding whether or not to kill them.

This whole song sounds like being remembered for something notorious.
