Diamonds For Tears

1. In these days of manmade wonders we still bicker over flies
When you come seeking for forgiveness, I'll be forced to choose my side.

If I deny you what you're searching, do I do it out of fear
Am I ruling out my reason, killing that which I hold dear.

Out of my way I'm running, with an excuse just underway
Reality's so daunting, and I've got no way to explain.

[Chorus:]
Cos when you're sleeping right next to me, I know you're the one
So when I hear you calling my name, why do I turn away to run
I guess that's why it's raining diamonds, sweet happiness in tears
Crying heaven shed your diamonds, diamonds for tears

2. In the light of recent findings, there's no greater taint than grace
But to relinquish all our bindings, always finds us out of place.

If I rested here a while more, would you hold me to your heart
If I knew what it was meant for, will I know to play my part.

Out of my way I'm leaving, another excuse before I'll stay
Reality's applauding, I know I don't know the right way.

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Is it a lost cause
Can we overlook this taint
Are these the dead laws
Like a doubt eating the saint.

And though I fear these shackles, like my darkness closing in
I will hold out my hands, I will hold out my hands.

[Chorus]
