Feed Me Diamonds Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lie with me, lie to me
Come on, dismantle me, do it slowly
My hands, my feet, my voice, take everything
Reduce it all to crystal blackness
'Cause blind discipline it's useless
What's the good in being good?
[Chorus]
So go ahead, feed me diamonds
Feed me diamonds
Feed me diamonds, diamonds
Feed me diamonds
[Verse 2]
A look, a glance, a gesture
Can mean everything and nothing
A sentiment adrift in crystal blackness
I won't pursue, I won't, but I can't stop it either
I'll let the world make it's decision
No matter the consequences
What's the good in being good?
[Chorus]
So go ahead, feed me diamonds
Do what you want to
Feed me diamonds
Bleed me slowly
Feed me diamonds
Feel my heart beating
Indulge completely
Feed me diamonds
Bleed me, keep me believing
Why won't you save me?
Feed me diamonds
Lie with me, lie to me
Come on, dismantle me, do it slowly
My hands, my feet, my voice, take everything
Reduce it all to crystal blackness
'Cause blind discipline it's useless
What's the good in being good?
[Chorus]
So go ahead, feed me diamonds
Feed me diamonds
Feed me diamonds, diamonds
Feed me diamonds
[Verse 2]
A look, a glance, a gesture
Can mean everything and nothing
A sentiment adrift in crystal blackness
I won't pursue, I won't, but I can't stop it either
I'll let the world make it's decision
No matter the consequences
What's the good in being good?
[Chorus]
So go ahead, feed me diamonds
Do what you want to
Feed me diamonds
Bleed me slowly
Feed me diamonds
Feel my heart beating
Indulge completely
Feed me diamonds
Bleed me, keep me believing
Why won't you save me?
Feed me diamonds
[Bridge]
Blind discipline it's useless
What's the good in being good?
[Chorus]
So go ahead, feed me diamonds
Do what you want to
Feed me diamonds
Bleed me slowly
Feed me diamonds, diamonds
Feed me diamonds
Feed me diamonds
Blind discipline it's useless
What's the good in being good?
[Chorus]
So go ahead, feed me diamonds
Do what you want to
Feed me diamonds
Bleed me slowly
Feed me diamonds, diamonds
Feed me diamonds
Feed me diamonds
About
This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation
Haunting and beautiful lyrics. Feeding someone diamonds is a way to kill them; they cause internal bleeding. This song portrays someone in a relationship they know is bad, perhaps fatal. But however bad it is, they cannot (or wont) get out of it. It is resignation to death. Discovered this song via the Better Living DJ’s remix…well worth a listen
