Tension builds up slow
Torn between us both
This looks set to blow
Cut your fuse
Shining brightly don't say
You can't see a damn thing
Lesson learnt well I'll think
Dreams get mined like diamonds
Shining brightly don't say
You can't see a damn thing
Lesson learnt well I'll think
Dreams get mined like diamonds
You
All I wanted was you
To love me evermore
You said you wanted more
How could you just leave?
Walking out that damn door
Just to watch me grieve
Curling up on the floor
Lesson learned well
Splattered on the wall
Nothing meant for all
Light this place on fire
Cut your noose
Pulling out your hair
To cover your lies
We all have a tell
It's in your eyes
Truth began to show
All that you know
Footsteps in the snow
Follow you home
And I've been losing sleep
Night after night
'Cuz I keep having the same dream
I lose my sight
And I can taste the iron water
Drip from the sky
Your thirst was quenched by blood
Though how much was spilt?
Was it ever enough for you?
Was there ever guilt?
Your confidence had died
Or was it the sun?
Your face is like a coin
And I've seen both sides
You said that pressure made diamonds
You said that the heat would make me shine
I know that diamonds make liars
I learned how to read between the lines
You said that pressure made diamonds
You said that the heat would make me shine
I know that diamonds make liars
I learned how to read between the lines
