"Dirt On My Diamonds" lyrics

"Dirt On My Diamonds"

I like a little dirt on my diamonds
Like my edges rough
Like the Mona Lisa smilin'
I can't get enough
I don't like it shinin'
Don't need it brand new
I like a little dirt on my diamonds too

I like a little tears on my pillow
A little rain on my back
A little weep in my willow
A little smoke in my stack
A little crack in my window
A little sting in my truth
I like a little dirt on my diamonds too

All we are is love and scars
Play the blues
And the dark don't end
'Til the light gets into you

All we are is love and scars
Play the blues
And the dark don't end
'Til the light gets into you

I like a little dirt on my diamonds
A little chip in my paint
A little scratch on the finish
A little sinner, little saint
A little taste of the bitter
A little salt in my wounds
I like a little dirt on my diamonds too
