Blood Diamond - Elm Street

There’s a demon in me

The blackest of black has locked me in the cell again

With barely time to spare

My heart pumps the blood to feed this appetite

I’ve got nowhere to turn to

The burning star nears day by day

If I don’t escape myself

All that could will be left undone

Pleasure will be the death of me

My next chapter I can’t see…

Mount the electric chair

Locked and loaded to blow through the atmosphere

With the session at hand, the sparks ablaze left

To feel electrified

The poison has been drawn

Nothing gained but destruction

Through lost time tomorrow’s

A new day to break a promise and rot away

My next chapter I’ll never see

Pleasure becomes the death of me

I feel your fire

A searing fist to kiss, a blow to my heart

You never loved me

Suckers pay to play… Forever!

I, I hear the calling

The road she cries my name

I’m burning rubber, the street runs red

One place I’ll never stay… Blood diamond!

Entering the cave at night

The screams you hear are nothing to fear

Plate and shield are out of sight

The plague draws near now there’s something to fear

The witch stirs her cauldron black

This love I crave has dug my own grave

Smoke and mirrors to distract

Through mystical eyes, the truth is disguised

Not a heroes return

This scourge I bare destroys the affair

Burning bridges, my thoughts now turn

Burn!

Don’t!

Don’t!

The masquerade is over

Through mystical lies the truth hits my eyes

Holding my head up high, it’s time to fly

Eternal stretch of black

Miles & miles pass the lights are bright at last

But there’s a demon in me

Leading the fight, trapped in this hell again

I’ve got nowhere to turn too

This baron land reflects my own emptiness

Shadowed by your misery

An endless chapter of living in a memory

Overwhelming ecstasy

A life lived in tainted reality

I, I feel your fire

A searing fist to kiss, a blow to my heart

You never loved me

Suckers pay to play… forever!

I, I hear the calling

The road she cries my name

I’m burning rubber the street runs red

One place I’ll never stay… blood diamond!

You, you’ll feel my fire

A searing fist to kiss, a blow to your heart

I’ll never love you

Suckers choose to stay… forever!

The road, the road she cries my name

The street runs red forever
