Manafest - Diamonds
(Chorus)
Cause I know diamonds aren’t the only thing that shines
And I know love can make the darkness sing
(Verse)
I throw myself out my own house, couldn’t stop myself so I just walked out
Huh, almost did it again, spoke too soon, called a couple of friends
Blood boiled over, I’ll be cool in a minute, kicked a few things
That’s enough are you finished, heart in hand, calm as I walk in the door
Hold my breath when I let out a roar, even good men need a little grace
Put the world down and I pick up faith, only scared boys try to save face
Pride in the mouth, it’s a bitter taste, spit it out
Don’t want it, Don’t need it, put it down and I just leave it
But I keep hearing it talk to me, knows what I’m thinking like its on to me
Hold my breath when its hard to breathe
(Chorus x2)
Cause I know diamonds aren’t the only thing that shines
And I know love can make the darkness sing
(Verse 2)
I need a stronger tower, will power, no coward
Take back the flowers, sold the casket
My soul’s established, found a passage
Strike the matches, light my black and white the sky
Wipe my fears, redeem the time
The bathroom mirror, I’m eye to eye
Look inside my soul and try to talk to the guy if he’s still alive
Pinch myself, try not to cry, walkin’ by the sea of a great divide
Left my print, I still survived, is this the one?!
My time is now, my moment jump and leave the crowd
Walking with a king, I’m tall and proud
Standing reborn, got the victors crown
(Chorus x2)
Cause I know diamonds aren’t the only thing that shines
And I know love can make the darkness sing
(Interlude)
I no longer have to wait for the spark that covers me
Its a stand for me to take, it’s not a wand that we can wave
Its the faith like a child that counts when
I try to do what I think I feel is right
But it’s never been something I control
Its so hard to commit when I don’t know
Its the faith like a child that counts when
I try to do what I think I feel is right
But it’s never been something I control
Its so hard to commit when I don’t know
(Chorus x2)
Cause I know diamonds aren’t the only thing that shines
And I know love can make the darkness sing
