“I’m a Natural Blue” is the sixth and final track on Waterparks' 2013 EP Black Light, and was the band’s most successful song prior to the release of their debut album Double Dare.
The title is most likely a reference to a popular line said by Dory in the Pixar film Finding Nemo. This follows a the...
[Chorus]
Break me
Cause I'm just not used to
Digging
Deep through all my idols' graves
I'm starting to think
This isn't all, this isn't all that it's cracked up to be
[Verse 1]
I feel like
My ideas
Have lost their
Glow somehow
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Everyone wants someone else
To wear their skin until it's out
Like, "Hey thanks, music needs your help
The way it needs to rot in hell"
Originality's a ghost
I "see" it when I "hear" the most
I'm thinking there's a better way
But better ways are gems today so
[Chorus]
Break me
Cause I'm just not used to
Digging
Deep through all my idols graves
I'm starting to think
This isn't all, this isn't all it's cracked up to
Break me
Cause I'm just not used to
Digging
Deep through all my idols graves
I'm starting to think
This isn't all, this isn't all it's cracked up to be
[Verse 2]
I can see a crumbling scene of mockingbirds
Breaking their teeth eating golden words
The last thing kids need is you
The best time for truth is soon
[Pre-Chorus 2]
So break me cause I've got the feeling
Nothing here is as appealing
As my heart wants to believe
It is and that's the other reason
Why I can't stop pushing deeper
Down the rabbit hole to see the
Other side and what I need
And what I need is trying to
[Chorus]
Break me
Cause I'm just not used to
Digging
Deep through all my idols graves
I'm starting to think
This isn't all, this isn't all it's cracked up to
Break me
Cause I'm just not used to
Digging
Deep through all my idols graves
I'm starting to think
This isn't all, this isn't all it's cracked up to be
[Bridge]
There will come a day when I will make things different
Throw down everything and make it futuristic
I know that not everybody wants to be different
But this is getting ridiculous, oh
And I almost understand
I almost understand
I almost understand, oh
[Chorus/Outro]
Break me
Cause I'm just not used to
Digging
Deep through all my idols graves
I'm starting to think
This isn't all, this isn't all it's cracked up to
Break me
Cause I'm just not used to
Digging
Deep through all my idols graves
I'm starting to think
This isn't all, this isn't all it's cracked up to
Break me
Cause I'm just not used to
Digging
Deep through all my idols graves
I'm starting to think
This isn't all, this isn't all it's cracked up to be
