Or, depending on what school of thought you follow, 1901-2001. Since technically year 0 was still BCE (BC), and then it started at 1 CE (AD). Sorry, but I've gotten in the habit of using BCE and CE (Before Common Era and Common Era) instead of BC and AD.

lol, from what I learned - time always starts from 0. As in, a day starts at 0.00, and so do ages

i always learned that year 0 was the 1st year of the 1st century, so technically the 20th century is 1900-1999 AD becuase a century is 100 years and the flat year (1800, 1900, etc) is the beginning of the century...



right?

This should settle the argument. (Google is your best friend (along with wikipedia, lol)).

1901 CE - 2000 CE
Why give up, why give in?

It's not enough, it never is.

So I will go on until
the end.

We've become desolate.

It's not enough, it never
is.

But I will go on until the end.

I've lost my way.

I've lost my way, but I will go on until the end.

Living is
hard enough

Without you fucking up.
