"Diamond" lyrics

I'm sleeping in a shop window
I'll dress up from head to toe
Been here for a while, been putting on a smile
But they only stop to look, then go
I've been standing on the shelf
And everyday I tell myself
Keep doing what you do, there's nothing wrong with you
They're just looking for something else

On the wrong side of my Louis
But they don't even recognise me
So they won't buy what they can't see
But oh-whoah-oah, I know

I'm a diamond, beautiful and rare
I'm a diamond that no one wants to wear
I'm harder than the rest, but they haven't found me yet
I'm a diamond, and no one seems to care

Queueing up outside my door
But I'm the one that they ignore
The plastic only breaks, the shine it only fades
Like every other jewel instore

Hold my head high, and let it go
They can't walk by, and tell me no
Yeah it's alright, I'm in control
I'm the only one who needs to know

I'm a diamond, beautiful and rare
I'm a diamond that no one wants to wear
I'm harder than the rest, but they haven't found me yet
I'm a diamond, and no one seems to care

I been here forever, lost treasure
Can't cut me, though they've tried
I've been in the rough for long enough
No, I don't need them to realise

I'm a diamond, beautiful and rare
I'm a diamond that no one wants to wear
I'm harder than the rest, but they haven't found me yet
I'm a diamond, and no one seems to care
