Diamonds

You treat me this way, baby

’cause you want to feel loved.

Sweetheart, I do love you.

You fight it, you’re blind maybe?

In your brawl you got me shoved.

Sweetheart, if you only knew.

In between valleys and peaks

Sometimes trapped for weeks

Inside cages we built with sharp fears

Of no longer having each other near.

You said you treasured me my dear

Your one jewel, princess cut and clear

Yet you don’t decide, too hot, too cold

Licked the streaks of colored light

Bathed my members in lust melted gold

Then took me down in one flight

Crashed and burned, ignited stars

Killing each other; to the world: au revoir

You love me like this

’cause you don’t love enough of you

But diamonds are diamonds

And I am one too

Diamonds don’t love people

And this way I can’t love you

Diamonds are built to be loved

Honey, please love me right

The way my pain has burnt

and you considered light,

Destroyed my little ice heart.

But diamonds are not supposed to melt,

And you chose to be apart .

How do you expect me to be well?

As ice melted, water

You saw me as a piece of glass

The diamond I am, was lost;

Things went so far and so fast.

Darling, please, undersand,

I’m here to love you,

I no longer can stand

I’m focused on that too

You’re my precious, my dear,

Please, don’t go away

Diamonds can love people,

We just have to pray.
