Lyrics
When I find myself awake I'll put my thoughts down on the page Half-asleep, I'll make a list Then read back all my greatest hits Should meditate, should work out more Should read until my brain gets sore Meet someone, go far away Try being socially less strange That's how a diamond grows, yeah Give yourself the right chance over time Don't believe them if they try to sell you something quicker, yeah I cut at least half of my friends But no one noticed or mentioned I thought at last I'd breathe easy But then I thought a lot of things Hey new year, hey new you You left so much low-hanging fruit You're in the ring for the title fight With only montage training time That's how a diamond grows, yeah Give yourself the right chance over time Don't believe them if they try to sell you something quicker, yeah That's how a diamond grows, yeah Reach as far as you can then hold tight Don't believe them if they try to tell you something different, yeah They say a diamond grows with time I believe it, 'cause I've seen it with my eyes Well, there's a guaranteed parade of broken promises Did you expect some kind of miracle You do what you can do, that's all, all, all That's how a diamond grows, yeah Give yourself the right chance over time Don't believe them if they try to sell you something quicker, yeah That's how a diamond grows with time Don't believe them if they try to tell you something different
