Locked behind glass
are guns and diamonds
Everyone needs a little sparkle in their life
Killing with rocks never felt so right
The world wants both: guns and diamonds
Looks that shine and kill
One slaughters the calf
One foots the steak house bill
Everyone needs pretty things to own
To shoot others with precious stones
Murder every once and a while
To remind yourself you’re not alone
Reload your brain
Let the pain heal your bones
Tuck me under blankets of velveteen black
Convince me to stay
Shoot me in the back
Put me on display with your guns and diamonds
Wait for a steel clouded day
‘Scuse a victim for dying
I want to drown in steel drops of rain
It’s nice to know I’ll die in such beautiful pain
