Diamond - Manzana

You treat me like

A diamond

keep me safe

You wouldn’t let

Me wet my paws

You save me from the

Sunlight and the stars

Killing with kindness

Being proud of what you are

I have to know what it feels like

I have to know

One step further and I’m bound to break

You have stolen my life away

If I’m meant to crash down

Then I will

Cannot save me from myself

You treat me like

A diamond let me shine

Wear me once a week

Then lock me up inside

You tell me stories

About the world outside

Here I would be safe now

Slowly fading away

I have to know what it feels like

I have to know

One step further and I’m bound to break

You have stolen my life away

If I’m meant to crash down

Then I will

Cannot save me from myself

I have to know

I have to know what it feels like

(outside)

I have to know

What it’s like
