"Diamonds" lyrics

"Diamonds"

I'm headed far away from home
With all the time and the space to roam
I said sorry way too much
Hide in the light, 'cause darkness isn't enough

So watch me on your TV screen
I'll be the dream that you can make believe
You're prisoner to your beliefs
But nobody sees what's behind the scenes

No you won't get the best of me
Cause I don't believe in diamonds in the rough
You can't set me free
I don't believe in a thing called love

It's just my point of view
Maybe my city turned me into rust
Ashes to ashes we pay
Without a care as I breath in the dust

Haven't you open your eyes?
Haven't you read all the lies?
Isn't enough enough?
I'm feeling so sick inside
Below the surface, we all self destruct

No you won't get the best of me
Cause I don't believe in diamonds in the rough
You can't set me free
I don't believe in a thing called love

No you won't get the best of me
Cause I don't believe in diamonds in the rough
You can't set me free
I don't believe in a thing called love

I said sorry way too much
Hide in the light, 'cause darkness isn't enough
Yeah I said sorry way to much
But I don't believe in a thing called love

I don't believe in a thing called love
I don't believe in a thing called love

No you won't get the best of me
Cause I don't believe in diamonds in the rough
You can't set me free
I don't believe in a thing called love

No you won't get the best of me
Cause I don't believe in diamonds in the rough
You can't set me free
I don't believe in a thing called love
