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
