My Brightest Diamond
"The Diamond"

you are the brightest diamond
i can see you shining for miles and miles and miles and miles
everybody here’s wearing long faces but you

and mary wants to hold your face and kiss you for her birthday
are you coming?
i can see you shining
i can see you shining

you are the brightest diamond hidden in my pocket
oh how glorious you must feel splendid
you must feel splendid

but you have spit out beauty like an idiot
why did you chew up shinies with a paper shredder

you are the brightest diamond hidden on my wrist
you are now untouchable
now untouchable
now untouchable

reaching through the space between your universe and mine a warm light shines
and will until all breath and sigh expend

expend
