Lyrics
Overdressed in a box with its life overhead
Its friends are in snapshots
I would hate if the last time I was ever seen
Was from beggars on their knees
I lived in between a funeral home and children's park
Out one window I saw laughter
Out the other I saw suits
Spare them the sight of a body all used
Comfortably laid in clothes you would never wear
Your eyes are closed shut even though they cannot see
They break a bone or two just to adjust the body
Once had a doll that was pure as the snow in her thread
The bags under her eyes
They matched clothes that were chosen just
To compensate how terribly they shine
She was a prize that made the sun and the moon fight over
Which one would cast a shadow
Which one would keep her company
Spare them the sight of a body all used
Comfortably laid in clothes you would never wear
Your eyes are closed shut even though they cannot see
They break a bone or two just to adjust the body
I fooled myself in thinking I knew you
But all I knew were glassy eyes
Is this the way you gain your youth?
A sweet hangover at my service
So far under the influence
You'll make blacker bags under your eyes
So far you've become underground
So far you will never realize
You're a diamond in a world of coal
A diamond in a world of coal
A diamond in a world of coal
Spare them the sight of a body all used
Comfortably laid in clothes you would never wear
Your eyes are closed shut even though they cannot see
They break a bone or two just to adjust the body
A diamond in a world of coal
A diamond in a world of coal
A diamond in a world of coal
A diamond in a world of coal
A diamond in a world of coal
A diamond in a world of coal
