Shinedown - Diamond Eyes (Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom) lyrics
Your rating:
I am the shadow and the smoke in your eyes I am the ghost, that hides in the night Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! Wait, wait a minute, take a step back You gotta think twice before you react So stay, stay a little while Because a promise not kept is the road to exile Hey! What's 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 should've been gone Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! One push is all you'll need Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! A fist first philosophy Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! We watch with wounded eyes Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! So I hope you recognize 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 the regret And now I see the world through diamond eyes Damn, damn it all down Took one to the chest without even a sound so 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 Everyone of us is expendable Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! One push is all you'll need Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! A fist first philosophy Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! We watch with wounded eyes Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom! So I hope you recognize 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 the regret And now I know that I'm alive 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 the regret And now I see the world through diamond eyes 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 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 regret 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 the regrets And now I know that I'm alive 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 the regret And now I see the world through diamond eyes 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 the regret And now I see the world through diamond eyes Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom...
