Diamond Lies Lyrics


Erasure Diamond Lies

[Verse 1]
Do ya wanna be there?
Take a placebo, square in the circle
But what does she know?
Living every second as if it were the last
We could go up anytime 'cause life is a blast
I got a few moves, I dance like you do
Chew it up and spit it out, start over again
Hang on for dear life, I'm not a DJ
They follow in droves, wherever he goes

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
You're more like a never was
More like there ever could be

[Chorus]
What a sight for sore eyes
With your diamond lies
I gotta stop pretending
I can't take you now

[Verse 2]
Do ya wanna be there?
A clueless pseudo
You're not official, you wanna pull me
Living every second as if it were the last
We could go up anytime 'cause life is a blast
You try to haunt me, a little extra
Chew it up and spit it out, start over again, 'gain
I got a few moves, I'm not a hero
Don't wanna be there
No, not like you do

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
You're more like a never was
More like there ever could be

[Chorus]
What a sight for sore eyes
With your diamond lies
I gotta stop pretending
I can't be that guy

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
What a sight for sore eyes
With your diamond lies
I gotta stop pretending
I can't be that guy
Gotta wash my hands of you
Before we disappear
My mind is growing hazy now
I can't be that guy
