Diamonds In The City
Open the door and I step into the world
These strings keep pulling my heart
Attached to those blue eyes and pearls
There must be somewhere I can still lay my head
Where you're still something I long to sleep next to in the bed
You said you'd say
You said you'd say
You said you'd be my hanging scales
Erase all these changes
You turned away
You turned away so I replaced all our shiny gold with diamonds in the city
Untie my shoes and I walk on to the road
So far beyond all the pavement
Surpassing containment
I realize now
These nights
They don't bring the joy
It's something deeper inside the screaming heart of a boy
So I kneeled and prayed
I kneeled and prayed
Repeating sins
My face endured
How can I keep the faith when I've seen the rage
I've seen the rage
Viewed all the hate reciprocate the pureness of this place
And they think I've become numb to the situations
But I know when my verse is sung and in the end I'll be the only one
You said you'd say
You said you'd say
You said you'd be my hanging scales
Erase all these changes
You turned away
You turned away so I replaced all our shiny gold with diamonds in the city
Oh
Diamonds in the city
(Oh)
(Oh)
Diamonds in the City
(Hey)
(Woah)
(Oh)
Diamonds in the city
