coal makes diamonds
If I'm a desert my face is the wind I know where I'm going and I know where I've been You're the horizon and the wide open space And I surround you caressing your face  There's not a limit to the things that I'd do I'd give you stars but the stars wouldn't do You're like the lava burning buried below An eruption but too early to show  We are islands I hear our sirens And so we wait (wait, down, put it right in front of me) We wait (wait, down, put it right in front of me)  'Cause when pressure heightens  Our coal makes diamonds  And so we wait (wait, down, in front of me) We wait (wait, down, wait, down)  Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh  With the flood comes shifting the soil Our blood runs thicker than oil It's like erosion cutting straight to the core No human nature ever felt this before  And we become an unbreakable vow I wanna hold you up, higher than most Because it feels like flying out  We are islands I hear our sirens And so we wait (wait, down, put it right in front of me) We wait (wait, down, put it right in front of me)  'Cause when the pressure heightens  Our coal makes diamonds  And so we wait (wait, down, in front of me) We wait (wait, down, wait, down)  Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh  (Wait, down)  We are islands I hear our sirens And so we wait (wait, down, put it right in front of me) We wait (wait, down, put it right in front of me)  'Cause when pressure heightens  Our coal makes diamonds  And so we wait (wait, down, in front of me) We wait (wait, down, wait, down)  Wait, down, in front of me Wait, down, in front of me Wait, down, in front of me Wait, down Wait, down
