SHINEDOWN
- Diamond Eyes Lyrics / with translations(INTRO)
I am the shadow, and the smoke in your eyes,
I am the ghost, that hides in the night
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM! (x4)
(VERSE)
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! whats 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
(CHORUS)
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
One push is all you'll need
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
Fist first philosophy
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
We watch with wounded eyes
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
So I hope you recognize
Out on the front line
dont 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
(VERSE)
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 deja vu
a suicidal maniac with nothing to lose
so wait, it's the exception to the rule
every one of us in EXPENDABLE*
(CHORUS)
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
One push is all you'll need
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
Fist first a philosophy
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
We watch with wounded eyes
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
So I hope you recognize
(HOOK)
Out 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
Out 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
(BRIDGE)
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
[*Guitar Solo*]
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 regrets
Out 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
Out 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 love how most of their songs have a meaning. Like this is about the war at least that is what it reads as in a way.
