Forever Blue

What is the measure of the common man
No deeds to share
Gifts to compare
When all I have it rests 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
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
Forever blue
Forever blue.

My colours will release the bonds again
I'm growin' into all I could have been
My colours 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...
I'm gonna burn it all...
I'm gonna burn it all...
I'm gonna burn it...
I'm gonna burn it all...
I'm gonna burn it all...
I'm gonna burn it all...
I'm gonna burn it...
