Diamond In The Grind - Cherry Ghost

A shot in the dark

The last dance of a flickering spark

On the footsteps

Of my diamond in the grind

A sweet rising note

The last blast on a fainting throat

A pauper’s serenade

For my diamond in the grind

Every last tear that I earned

I’d spend in a single night

Laughing like a drain

When heartache came

And tried to take my sunshine

A hardwearing prayer

A holy nudge at God’s empty chair

On the footsteps

Of my diamond in the grind

Every last tear that I earned

I’d spend in a single night

Laughing like a drain

When heartache came

And tried to take my sunshine

A shot in the dark

The last dance of a flickering spark

On the footsteps

Of my diamond in the grind

On the footsteps

Of my diamond in the grind
