socratic - a diamond in a world of coal lyrics
overdressed in a box with it’s life overhead.
it’s friends are in snapshots.
i would hate if the last time i was ever seen
was from beggars on their knees.
i lived in between a funeral home and childrens park.
out one window i saw laughter.
out the other i saw suits.
spare them the sight of a body all used.
comfortably laid in clothes you would never wear.
your eyes are closed shut, even though they cannot see.
they broke a bone or two just to adjust the body.
once had a doll that was pure as the snow in thread.
the bags under her eyes, they matches clothes that were chosen
just to compensate how terribly they shined.
she was a prize that made the sun and the moon fight over which one would cast the shadow.
which one would keep her company.
i fooled myself in thinking i knew you.
but all i know were gl-ssy eyes,
is this the way you gain your youth?
a sweet hangover at my service.
go so far under the influence you’ll make blacker bags under your eyes.
so far you become underground.
so far you will never realize your a diamond in a world of coal.
