Aquamarine
So long I've wanted, and wondered
Is there something below the surface?
Something to bring reason
A dream of substance
Forever chasing
Forever retracing
Back to my lofty dreams
And my high hopes

No matter the price
Or the sacrifice
A fool's paradise

Drifting alone
Torn apart at sea
You were chasing diamonds
When you had aquamarine

I am but a gear
In this rusting machine
This is what I hear
This is what I believe
I force myself to see things
So I never feel alone
How can I make silence out of endless noise
Drown out the head voice

I'll never remember
WHAT ITS LIKE
To be HUNG ON A WALL
Exposed so you can see
NOT EVERYONE NEEDS THE HAND THAT FEEDS

Forever chasing
Forever retracing
Back to my lofty dreams
And my high hopes

Drifting alone
Torn apart at sea
You were chasing diamonds
When you had aquamarine

(Built me up
Just to tear me down, yeah you
Built me up
Just to tear me down, yeah you
Built me up
Just to tear me down, yeah you
Tore me down)
Yeah you built me up just to tear me down
Yeah you built me up just to tear me down

And when your diamonds lose their shine
I'll never lose mine
And when your dreams all fade away
I'll never lose my way

And when your diamonds lose their shine
I'll never lose mine
And when your dreams all fade away
I'll never lose my way

Drifting alone
(Drifting alone)
Torn apart at sea
(Seek clarity)
You were chasing diamonds
When you had aquamarine

You built me up

Yeah, you built me up
Just to tear me down, yeah you
Built me up
Just to tear me down
You were chasing diamonds
When you had aquamarine
