Blood Diamond Lyrics

There's a demon in me
The blackest of black has locked me in the cell again
With barely time to spare
My heart pumps the blood to feed this appetite

I've got nowhere to turn to
The burning star nears day by day
If I don't escape myself
All that could will be left undone

Pleasure will be the death of me
My next chapter I can't see...

Mount the electric chair
Locked and loaded to blow through the atmosphere
With the session at hand, the sparks ablaze left
To feel electrified

The poison has been drawn
Nothing gained but destruction
Through lost time tomorrow's
A new day to break a promise and rot away

My next chapter I'll never see
Pleasure becomes the death of me

I feel your fire
A searing fist to kiss, a blow to my heart
You never loved me
Suckers pay to play... Forever!

I, I hear the calling
The road she cries my name
I'm burning rubber, the street runs red
One place I'll never stay... Blood diamond!

Entering the cave at night
The screams you hear are nothing to fear
Plate and shield are out of sight
The plague draws near now there's something to fear

The witch stirs her cauldron black
This love I crave has dug my own grave Smoke and mirrors to distract
Through mystical eyes, the truth is disguised

Not a heroes return
This scourge I bare destroys the affair
Burning bridges, my thoughts now turn

Burn!
Don't!
Don't!

The masquerade is over
Through mystical lies the truth hits my eyes
Holding my head up high, it's time to fly

Eternal stretch of black
Miles & miles pass the lights are bright at last
But there's a demon in me
Leading the fight, trapped in this hell again

I've got nowhere to turn too
This baron land reflects my own emptiness
Shadowed by your misery
An endless chapter of living in a memory

Overwhelming ecstasy
A life lived in tainted reality

I, I feel your fire
A searing fist to kiss, a blow to my heart
You never loved me
Suckers pay to play... forever!

I, I hear the calling
The road she cries my name
I'm burning rubber the street runs red
One place I'll never stay... blood diamond!

You, you'll feel my fire
A searing fist to kiss, a blow to your heart
I'll never love you
Suckers choose to stay... forever!

The road, the road she cries my name
The street runs red forever
