Forever Blue

What is the measure of the common man
No deeds to share
Gifts to compare
When all I have it rests in on ticking hands
I have my ways
Descent delayed
And I have tried to make you see
A brighter hue
But deep down I know I'll be
Forever blue
And there's a blackness inside me
That's breaking through
But deep down I know I'll be
Forever blue
Nobody wants to learn a thing these days
An endless coil
Of waste and toil
Empires are built upon the ashes of
The weak and frail
Those doomed to fail
And I've been trying to set free
A lighter hue
But deep down I know I'll be
Forever blue
And there's a blackness inside me
That's breaking through
But deep down I know I'll be
Forever blue
My colors will release the bonds again
I'm growin into all I could have been
All of these changes that you see
Maybe it's all just chemistry?
You've made a monster out of me
Baby it's all just chemistry
It's all just chemistry
I'm gonna burn it all
