[Liquid Diamonds]
from the choirgirl hotel
liner

surrender then start your engines
you'll know quite soon what my mistake was
for those horse back or dog sled
you turn on at the bend in the road
I hear she still grants forgiveness
although I willingly forgot her
the offering is molasses and you say
I guess I'm an underwater thing so I
guess I can't take it personally
I guess I'm an underwater thing I'm
liquid running
there's a sea secret in me
it's plain to see it is rising
but I must be flowing liquid diamonds
calling for my soul
at the corners of the world
I know she's playing poker with the rest of the stragglers
calling for my soul at the corners of the world
I know she's playing poker and if your friends don't come back
to you an you know this is madness a lilac mess
in your prom dress and you say I guess I'm an underwater thing

[4:35] I go, I go inside a shell. I see it's so. And you're doing oh so well these days. You do it again. And I said it's coming back again. Well, something like it. Saturday. Such was it. Can he bring me those jeans. Keep it back. Daddy's down. Preaching, beggin' to himself "Keep it just between us." Yes, yes. It's Liquid.
