Pressure Makes Diamonds ft. After Perfect Lyrics

A penny for your thoughts

I wonder why you stand there

Alone by the door

I know life gave more

Than you should absorb

And that you foretell

You can't take anymore

But what was before

Is not what you're made of

And those who hurt you

Don't represent all

See what's ahead can go

Far and beyond

If you trust that darkness

Will give dawn

Come away with me

I'll show you what I see

We're dancing in a crowded street

Offbeat and bare feet

We barely notice it

What once made you

Inclined to hide

Has turned into your

Armor of shine

See, pressure makes diamonds

I know once bitten twice shy

Seemed to be the story of

Your life

And that you relied on

Your defence

Promised no one ever

Would get close again

But once you're used to be

Loved like this

You'll rise as a phoenix

From the ashes

And you will learn

How to blow in the wind

No longer take shelter

By isolating

Don't live life as an island

Release yourself

From confinement

We will show you reliance

By shining rays of enlightenment

So come away with me

I'll show you what I see

We're dancing in a crowded street

Offbeat and bare feet

We barely notice it

What once made you

Inclined to hide

Has turned into

Your armor of shine

See, pressure makes diamonds

Soon we will watch you glow

Dancing on your own

You'll internalize the love

You've been shown

And then you will know

Just how far you can go

You'll realize your paths expose

All your pasts and tomorrows

Cause layers of both

Light and shadows

With pressure makes diamonds
