Aluminum

Lyrics

[Verse 1] How, in every visible way, you shine As if the stars in your wake align Almost impossible to malign But just below where you shine, you burn Although I know it, I never learn Just goes to show that I can't discern [Chorus] Aluminum to me Aluminium to some You can shine like silver all you want But you're just Aluminum [Verse 2] Illuminating just what you want to show You'd never rust, but I'd never know You can't be trusted, I can't let go [Chorus] Aluminum to me Aluminium to some You can shine like silver all you want But you're just Aluminum [Bridge] Every time you're here, I forget When you leave, you leave only regret Every time you're here, I forget Everything You're so lightweight, how can you survive? Recycling moments from others' lives You're not as precious as you contrive [Chorus] Aluminum to me Aluminium to some You can shine like silver all you want But you're just Aluminum Yeah, you're just Aluminum
