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 Ill be
Forever blue
And theres a blackness inside me
Thats breaking through
But deep down I know Ill 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 Ive been trying to set free
A lighter hue
But deep down I know Ill be
Forever blue
And theres a blackness inside me
Thats breaking through
But deep down I know Ill be
Forever blue
My colors will release the bonds again
Im growin into all I could have been
All of these changes that you see
Maybe its all just chemistry?
Youve made a monster out of me
Baby its all just chemistry
Its all just chemistry
Im gonna burn it all
