Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals - Diamonds on the Inside lyrics

I knew a girl Her name was truth She was a horrible liar She couldn't spend one day long But she couldn't be satisfied When you have everything You have everything to lose She made herself A bed of nails And shes plannin' on puttin' it to use Cos she had diamonds on the inside She had diamonds on the inside She had diamonds on the inside Diamonds A candle throws its light into the darkness In a nasty world,so shines the good deed Make sure the fortune, that you seek Is the fortune that you need So tell me why,the first to ask,is the last to give,everytime What you say and do not mean Follow too close behind Cos she had diamonds on the inside She had diamonds on the inside She wore diamonds on the inside Diamonds Like a soldier standing long under fire Any change comes as a relief Let the giver's name remain unspoken For she is just a generous thief But she had diamonds on the inside Cos she had diamonds on the inside She wore diamonds on the inside She wore diamonds Oh diamonds She had diamonds She wore diamonds Diamonds
