Diamond Eyes
Shinedown

I am the shadow and the smoke in your eyes

I am the ghost that hides in the night


Boom-lay boom-lay boom

Boom-lay boom-lay boom

Boom-lay boom-lay boom

Boom-lay boom-lay boom


Wait, wait a minute take a step back

You gotta think twice before you react

So stay, stay a little while

Because the promise I kept is the road to exile


Hey, what's the circumstance?

You'll never be great without taking a chance so

Wait, you waited too long

Had your hands in your pocket when you shoulda been gone


Boom-lay boom-lay boom

One push is all you'll need

Boom-lay boom-lay boom

A fist-first philosophy


Boom-lay boom-lay boom

We watch with wounded eyes

Boom-lay boom-lay boom

So I hope you recognize


I'm on the front line, don't worry I'll be fine

The story is just beginning

I say goodbye to my weakness, so long to the regret

And now I see the world through diamond eyes


Damn, damn it all down

Took one to the chest without even a sound so

What, what are you worth?

The things you love or the people you hurt


Hey, it's like déjà vu

A suicidal maniac with nothing to lose

So wait, it's the exception to the rule

Every one of us is expendable


Boom-lay boom-lay boom

One push is all you'll need

Boom-lay boom-lay boom

A fist-first philosophy


Boom-lay boom-lay boom

We watch with wounded eyes


Boom-lay boom-lay boom

So I hope you recognize


I'm on the front line, don't worry I'll be fine

The story is just beginning

I say goodbye to my weakness, so long to the regret

And now I know that I'm alive


I'm on the front line, don't worry I'll be fine

The story is just beginning

I say goodbye to my weakness, so long to the regret

And now I see the world through diamond eyes


Every night of my life

I watch angels fall from the sky

Every time that the sun still sets

I pray they don't take mine


I'm on the front line, don't worry I'll be fine

The story is just beginning

I say goodbye to my weakness, so long to regret


I'm on the front line, don't worry I'll be fine

The story is just beginning

I say goodbye to my weakness, so long to the regrets

And now I know that I'm alive


I'm on the front line, don't worry I'll be fine

The story is just beginning

I say goodbye to my weakness, so long to the regret

And now I see the world through diamond eyes


I'm on the front line, don't worry I'll be fine

The story is just beginning

I say goodbye to my weakness, so long to the regret

And now I see the world through diamond eyes


Boom-lay boom-lay boom

Boom-lay boom-lay boom

Boom-lay boom-lay boom

Boom-lay boom-lay boom


Boom-lay boom-lay boom

Boom-lay boom-lay boom

Boom-lay boom-lay boom

Boom-lay boom-lay boom
