Diamond Kid Songtext
von Reckless Serenade

Hey kid, your downward stare
Can′t keep the world out there
It's knocking so, so loud
Don′t be scared
If you could only know
Just how far you'll go
Well, maybe then you wouldn't feel so cold

You closed the blinds on every window
Said your head was a mess
You slammed your bedroom door
Said you needed a rest
Oh, how long can this last?


It cuts deep
And the bags under your eyes feel heavy
It′s been a rough week
Well, you haven′t been yourself lately
And you used to find
Solace in the sunlight
But not this time
You're dreading every sunrise

You hide yourself away
To keep the wolves at bay
Don′t you know that you're a diamond kid?
You miss the good old days
You just can′t hide the pain
Don't you know that you′re a diamond kid?
Don't you know that you're a diamond kid?

You feel cheap
And your eyes are green with envy
You feel lost at sea
Tired, scared, and lonely
And it′s been so long
Since someone′s asked you what's wrong
Well, you played along
But you feel like you′re a fool on


You hide yourself away
To keep the wolves at bay
Don't you know that you′re a diamond kid?
You miss the good old days
You just can't hide the pain
Don′t you know that you're a diamond kid?
Don't you know that you′re a diamond kid?
You′re a diamond kid

Hey kid, you lost your way

Just know that it's okay
We′ve all burned in silence
And we've all had to pay
But you′re not alone in this
I can't stress that enough
I just can′t watch you give up
Like this, it hurts too much
You're not alone in this
I can't stress that enough
I just can′t watch you give up like this

There′s a light, there's a light at the end of this
It′s been so dark for so long, you can't imagine it
There′s a light, there's a light at the end of this
It′s been so dark for so long, you can't imagine it
There's a light, there′s a light at the end of this
It′s been so dark for so long, you can't imagine it
