My Brightest Diamond Inconsistent
I thought a friend was
Someone who you could sing to
Even if you had a terrible voice
I thought a friend was
Someone who said you that you would make it
When everybody was against you
Oh, but I was so wrong
Yes, I was wrong
About you
Consistent inconsistent love
Consistent inconsistent love
I thought a friend was
Someone who told you
You were beautiful
Without lipstick, yeah
I thought a friend was
(Without lipstick)
Someone who would cry with you
(I thought a friend was)
The day you lost your jelly diamond
(The day you lost your bicycle)
I thought a friend was
Someone who would give you
The life’s blood on a thumb
But I was wrong
I was wrong
About you
Consistent inconsistent love
Consistent inconsistent love
La la la la love
La la la love love la la love
