Silverstein Aquamarine Lyrics
Aquamarine by Silverstein
[Intro]
A ring in a box but not your dream,
It's not a diamond, it's aquamarine.
Your shocking look of self defeat,
So desperate.
I think of the place where you fooled me,
Beside the tarmac you never came clean.
I'm driving past the gruesome scene,
I'll never forget this.
[Verse 1]
I told you I wished that I was dead,
My eyes wouldn't open up again.
I can't believe I wasn't joking.
Salt and lime I taste,
The sickest thoughts I can't erase.
These images won't stop provoking.
[Pre-Chorus]
You know you could,
I wish you would.
[Chorus]
Fall on your knees and remove the sorrow,
Return the piece of my heart you borrowed.
Things you used to say,
Could take the pain away.
But now you're gone and we're falling faster,
We're forgetting things that we used to master.
Games we used to play,
Could take the pain away.
[Verse 2]
You packed your shit and went ahead,
My mind and my soul were left for dead,
I can't believe you weren't joking.
Sweat rolls down my face,
My bloody knuckles mark the stains,
My throat is closing up, I'm choking.
[Pre-Chorus]
You know you could,
(You know you could)
I wish you would.
(I wish you...)
[Chorus]
Fall on your knees and remove the sorrow,
Return the piece of my heart you borrowed.
Things you used to say,
Could take the pain away.
But now you're gone and we're falling faster,
We're forgetting things that we used to master.
Games we used to play,
Could take the pain away.
[Hook]
Same bed, we take no precautions,
Emotions, regrets and revenge.
The last step in killing the karma,
It makes sense from where we've been.
The same car, same songs, same motions,
We hold hands, relive how we met,
But no talk, no reconciliation,
This train's already left!
Did you think next April,
You'd be even further away.
Did you keep him faithful,
How many nights did you lay awake?
And even six years later,
The dialogue, it stays the same.
You're 2000 miles away,
Betrayers never change.
[Bridge]
A ring in a box but not from me,
It's still no diamond, it's aquamarine.
You'll never find your place of peace,
You'll always regret this.
[Outro]
Fall on your knees and remove the sorrow,
Return the piece of my heart you borrowed.
Things you used to say,
Could take the pain away.
But now you're gone and we're falling faster,
We're forgetting things that we used to master.
Games we used to play,
Could take the pain away.
A ring in a box but not your dream,
It's not a diamond, it's aquamarine.
Your shocking look of self defeat,
So desperate.
I think of the place where you fooled me,
Beside the tarmac you never came clean.
I'm driving past the gruesome scene,
I'll never forget this.
[Verse 1]
I told you I wished that I was dead,
My eyes wouldn't open up again.
I can't believe I wasn't joking.

The sickest thoughts I can't erase.

[Pre-Chorus]
You know you could,
I wish you would.
[Chorus]
Fall on your knees and remove the sorrow,
Return the piece of my heart you borrowed.
Things you used to say,
Could take the pain away.
But now you're gone and we're falling faster,
We're forgetting things that we used to master.
Games we used to play,
Could take the pain away.

My mind and my soul were left for dead,
