Diamonds Glittering

This simple letter that was left on a table Felt chiseled in stone and it seemed to enable An unwelcome moment of clarity that rode right in This swinging door with its cold metal handle A twist of the knob and it opens a channel To forgotten promises washed in on a dirty wind Seen through closed eyes The bar's lights Are diamonds glittering Where the goodbye And the low life Are features of the scene Seen through closed eyes The dark nights They could be anything They could be anything This glass of poison its content's enable The distance and longing to Ride in on waves of slow-motion memory Seeping through my skin Seen through closed eyes The bar's lights Are diamonds glittering Where the goodbye And the low life Are features of the scene Seen through closed eyes The dark nights They could be anything They could be anything They could be anything They could be anything
