Diamonds in the city

Diamonds in the city
Open the door and I step into the world
These strings keep pullin my heart
tatched to those blue eyes and pearls
There must be somewhere I can still lay my head
Where youre still something I long
To sleep next to in my bed

You said you say, you said you say
You said youd 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 onto the road
So far beyond all the pavement
Surpassing containment
And I realize now these nights
They dont bring the joy
Its 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
Ive seen the rage, Ive seen the rage
Filled all the hate, reciprocate
The pureness of this place
And they think Ive
Become numb
To the situations
But I know when
My verse Is sung
And in the end
Ill be the only one

You said you say, you said you say
You said youd 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
(ohhh)
Diamonds in the city
(ohh, ohhhh)
Diamonds in the City
(hey, woahhh, ohhhhhh)
Diamonds in the city
