The Boxer Rebellion - Promises

Diamonds

Pretty little thing, did you feel something?
Did you always want me to be something?
To mend a broken a heart
From a Devil of shallow nonsense
Turned your world upside down

What I ever said, did it mean something?
What I ever said, did it mean nothing?
And did I look the part?
When it's all said and done
When it's all said and done

I'm no good next to diamonds
When I'm too close, they start to fade
Are you angry with me now?
Are you angry 'cause I'm to blame?

I'm no good next to diamonds
When I'm too close, they start to fade
Are you angry with me now?
Are you angry 'cause I'm to blame?

Never wanna hide the truth from you
Just hang my head what I put you through
I wasn't good enough
When what's done is done, love
When it's all said and done

But I'm no good next to diamonds
When I'm too close, they start to fade
Are you angry with me now?
Are you angry 'cause I'm to blame?

'Cause I'm far away
Further than I ever was
Further than I ever was
Further than I ever was
Further than I ever was
Further than I ever was

I'm no good next to diamonds
When I'm too close, they start to fade
Are you angry with me now?
Are you angry 'cause I'm to blame?

I'm no good next to diamonds
When I'm too close, they start to fade
Are you angry with me now?
Are you angry 'cause I'm to blame?

'Cause I'm far away
Further than I ever was
Further than I ever was
Further than I ever was
Further than I ever was
Further than I ever was
Further than I ever was

I have no words
