lyrics

She fights like she loves, no mercy
She is my mother she taught me
how to be how to be
high peached, round and perfect, indiscreet
juice dripping down your bottom lip
when you bite me
I'm a sparkling diamond
You can call me Di
but like uncle Tom once told me
some diamonds want to stay coal, let's fly
I'm cursed with a deadly fall
I think I'll stay here swinging
cos I can't handle the world I'm living
And a voice says swing swing
swing swing
And a voice says swing swing
it's your thing thing

The feather that strokes me feels like a rock
I know I'm supposed to be strong but
I lost my heart to London city
and she turned out to be
a man with an axe
and now my soul is fucked
I'm a sparkling diamond
You can call me Di
but like uncle Tom once told me
some diamonds want to stay coal, let's fly
I'm cursed with a deadly fall
I think I'll stay here swinging
cos I can't handle the world I'm living
And a voice says swing swing
swing swing
And a voice says swing swing
it's your thing thing

I have no sympathy left
for the assholes of the world
I got more left for the killers and dealers
They're my people, I feel them
And we're all cursed with a deadly fall
cos we chose and choose and always will choose to stay coal
We're sparkling diamonds
but you won't know until we fall apart
We got things to do tomorrow
we gotta die
We're all just cold travellers with secret eyes of stone
and as we sit together now, one day we'll be gone
I'm a sparkling diamond
You can call me Di
but like uncle Tom once told me
some diamonds want to stay coal, let's fly
I'm cursed with a deadly fall
I think I'll stay here swinging
cos I can't handle the world I'm living
And a voice says swing swing
swing swing
And a voice says swing swing
It's your thing thing
