Rebecca Sugar
Lapis Lazuli (Medley)
(Part One - Lapis Lazuli/Wailing Stone)
She was trapped in a mirror and it couldn't be clearer
She wanted to leave this place and get herself back to space
And dad, you might think she's a criminal
But her friendship comes through subliminal

Lapis Lazuli, you fled into the bottom of the sea
Lapis Lazuli, you were so mad but then you came around to me

I could have tamed you, I could have shown
That I could depose you from your loud throne
But in the end, I wasn't good enough
I just showed the gems that I ain't got the stuff

Oh-oh, Wailing Stone!
I tried so hard to fly, but I was thrown
Oh-oh, Wailing Stone!
I gotta tell the gems 'cause they should know

Have a little, have a little, have a little faith in me!
I just wanted to help. You know, I
Have a little, have a little, have a little expertise!
I know it's not much
But if it could come in handy, I'd wanna be there
I think so highly of you, it just isn't fair
That you have such little faith
Lapis Lazuli, you fled into the bottom of the sea
Lapis Lazuli, you were so mad but then you came around to me

(Part Two - I Am Lapis Lazuli)
[All they care about is the Earth, but I never believed in this place...]
[You... you three knew I was in there, and you didn't do anything!]
[Did you even wonder who I used to be?]
[I'm Lapis Lazuli, and you can't keep me trapped here any more!]

Stuck here and it feels like eternity
Look deep like your image is a part of me
Blue gem like my name Lapis Lazuli
Watch me drag a captor down, bottom of the sea

Take me home while I kill a four-seater
Addicted to power like my name is Vegeta
Doped up when I woke up, thousand years
I can feel the hate while my plea falls on deaf ears

No, drag me down, take me home
I never ever wanna feel this way again
Now, drag me down, take me home
I can't take it, just leave me be

(Part Three - Her World)
[It was thousands of years ago...]
[I was only meant to visit for a short time, but I got caught...]
[I was picked up by a Homeworld soldier and confused for a Crystal Gem]
[They'd ask me "show us your base", "where is your leader?" I didn't know, and I couldn't say I'm not one of them!]
[It soon became clear that there was no hope in stopping the rebellion]
[All of the Homeworld gems fled, in all the panic of escaping Earth, I was left behind]
[And there I stayed, freedom in my sight but out of reach for ages]
[Until I was found...]
(Part Four - That Distant Shore)
It all became so lovely
Those bluest skies above me
Those funny feelings I had never felt before I met you

I thought I'd stay a while
I tried to learn to smile
So many colors I had never even known

Maybe I'll find myself sitting on that distant shore
Maybe I'm not alone

Then I see the colors fading
Gentleness of light escaping
Shadows of my fear invading
Have I seen this all before?

I know that there's something residing
A terror deep inside me
I couldn't understand how you could be so bold

Maybe I'll find myself smiling on that distant shore
Maybe I'm not alone

(Part Five - Shining Through)
Ooh, why so blue?
So many shades of sorrow got mixed into my hue
And each new moment just astounds me
So much I wanna do!
I finally feel my colors shining through!
I'm tired of the fighting
I'm tired of the blame
That mirror was a prison
And fusion was the same!
What's with these new sensations
That suddenly appear?
Deep as the roaring ocean
Free as the atmosphere!

Lapis Lazuli, you fled into the bottom of the sea
Then you came back to me in my hour of need
In this place you now call home
Where you can sit there smiling on that distant shore
Know that you're not alone

Now you listen to me, and you listen close, okay?
I need you to know that there's a place for you in this world, no matter who you are
The trauma and heartaches you felt are all in the past and can no longer define you
The future is now, and we need you more than you can understand
No one can fill the void if you left us now!
So for one last time, I need you to answer just one last very simple question
I need you to tell me...

Ooh, why so blue?
So many different reasons, but are they really true?
I wanna keep on going, wanna be right there with you
I'd love to see your colors shining through
I'd love to see your colors shining through
