Islands

Islands - Rough Gem lyrics

rate me

The world beat you for the something nice

You worked hard, died more

You mined what you died for

Diamonds di di di di di uh

You can whistle my name

It's the mines, in Africa

That are to blame

You can Scoop out my brain

Shape it into an ear and then tell me your pain

I've been awake from the first day

Stayed awake, stayed awake

The rabbit (?) the whole moon

Longer, short road

Dig deep but don't dig too deep

When it's late you'll see the hole is empty and oh so deadly

They want me raw and smooth like glass

They want it fast but they don't want flaws

I'm a girl's best friend

Can you cut, I can cut, 'cause I'm a rough gem

who lives in those lights in the distance?

Watered down, the rain will help you out

I had a dream, it was all a dream

But it was ruined by the sun shining in through me
