Socratic - A Diamond In A World Of Coal lyrics

Overdressed in a box with it's 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 childrens 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 broke a bone or two just to adjust the body Once had a doll that was pure as the snow in thread The bags under her eyes, they matches clothes that were chosen Just to compensate how terribly they shined She was a prize that made the sun and the moon fight over which one would cast the shadow Which one would keep her company I fooled myself in thinking I knew you But all I know were gla**y eyes Is this the way you gain your youth? A sweet hangover at my service Go so far under the influence you'll make blacker bags under your eyes So far you become underground So far you will never realize your a diamond in a world of coal
