Diamond

He pulls open his eyes as he rides into town
Oh the blood on his hands is washed down by the rain
Those bloodthirsty hangmen of Pilate are waiting no more
Now that their crimson stories are told
To the drain
To the drain

By this time he knows that it's too late
And the other cheek is far too tired
And he knows that the end of it all
Is the only diamond that keeps him... Inspired

Oh Yeah
That he keeps him inspired
Oh ho oh

He sleeps in a payphone and dreams of the sea
Yeah when he wakes he's still aching and cold and alone

Yeah he looks back to the childhood he had
Before all the children went mad
He loves that revolver like it was a
Precious stone

And by this time he knows that it's too late
And the other cheek is far too tired
And he knows that the end of it all
Is the only diamond that keeps him..
Inspired

A new lethal freedom keeps him warm
It is the light and the way
Cabaret actor now proselyte
Keen scrutinizer and new parasite

And he..
Looks for the Nazarene in every dirty magazine
Looks for the Nazarene in every dirty magazine

Yeah
No
Oh Yeah
Uhh

Oh he sees again just what the world is made of
Oh keeps firing repeating, God is love
Sees again just what the world is made of
Oh keeps firing repeating

God is love
God is love

Now he sees again just what the world is made of
Sees what the world is made of
Oh keeps firing repeating

God is love
God is love
Oh God is love

God is love
God is love
