Diamonds by Aaron Malone Lyrics

Surprised to be here again
Thought I'd left you behind
But you waited so patiently
And now you got me
For good this time

One thing I learned from Above
Is the end is the same
I can turn the page
Read tales of old
When the book will close
I'm still all alone
And have been all along
Good things are distracting
I never truly was happy

Vacation was nice
I am home now
The baggage of knowledge that's mine
Has promised it will never leave
At least that's one promise
Life is sure to keep
Quitting both my jobs
To write down what's in my head
So I can kill myself sooner
To let my brain get some rest

Distraction from the bleeting
Of a mind rancid with disease
Succeeding when I try, though
Still just waiting to die

Waiting to die
Wanting to die
Waiting to die
Wanting to die

Tried to solve depression
But my effort was misguided
Gouge these tired eyes
Then listen for the sirens

Tried to win in love
And got this broken trophy
Tried to win my dreams
And ruined everything

Gonna try real hard
To be less stubborn
Gorge myself with poison
Let my body be discovered
Put my baggage in storage
Learn from it if you can
The goal in mind I had
Is to stop feeling bad
And preach what is right

The diamonds in my mind were gutted
Take my fins and throw me back in the sea
Never wanted this to be me
