Diamond Rings 2007 - Deer Tick

Oh it takes my life away

To think of her as gone

Now I’m running down the maze

And I’m finding only war

Blowing down the flame

To catch the burning wind

Now I’m running out of steam

Now watch this man collapse

You said you wanted a better life

And you will tell me what you find

And then I’ll stay the whole night through

And I’ll turn from sad to blue

Yes I’m choking after you (?)

Yeah I’m choking after you

Wish you’d think of me

The way I think of you

Well I find it hard to breathe

Cause now I know the truth

So what good would fingers be

If it weren’t for diamond rings?

Now I know you’re leaving me

And I know that I’m no king

And you said you wanted a better life

And you will tell me oh what you find

And then I stay the whole night through

And I turn from sad to blue

Yeah I’m choking after you

Miss, I’m choking now, do you?

(Go ahead now, tell them all about it)

So what good would fingers be

If it weren’t for diamond rings?

Now I know you’re leaving me

And I know that I’m no king
