Intro Chords: , ,   x4

    
                                                                   
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


                                                                   
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


                                                         
Aluminum to me, aluminium to some. You can shine like silver all you want

                      
But you're just Aluminum


                                                              
Every time you're here I forget, When you leave, you leave only regret,

                                   
Every time you're here, I forget E-very-thing


                                                            
You're so lightweight, how can you survive? Recycling moments from others' 

                                      
lives, You're not as precious as you contrive


                                                         
Aluminum to me, aluminium to some. You can shine like silver all you want

                                              
But you're just Aluminum. Yeah you're just aluminum
