Diamonds for Tears (Live) - Poets of the Fall

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

'Cause 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

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

What 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

'Cause when you're sleeping right next to me

I know you're the one

So when I hear you calling my name

Yeah, I know you're the one

I guess that's why it's raining diamonds

Sweet happiness in tears

Crying heaven shed your diamonds

Diamonds for tears

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

'Cause when you're sleeping right next to me

I know you're the one

So when I hear you calling my name

I'll know the good I've done

I guess that's why it's raining diamonds

Sweet happiness in tears

Crying heaven shed your diamonds

'Cause when you're sleeping right next to me

I know you're the one

So when I hear you calling my name

I'll know the good I've done

I guess that's why it's raining diamonds

Sweet happiness in tears

Crying heaven shed your diamonds

Diamonds for tears
