Lyrics

Diamonds
By Anna-Christina

In your eyes. I see me. In your eyes

This is how we came here, what a strange surprise
Together we have cried, together we will rise
Don’t let your past decide who you are to be
But let it become a part of you and me
Look up I see a star

Know in your dark despair
There’s a place for you and me
A broken heart we share
But there’s a place for you and me
Diamonds hidden in your eyes
Diamonds hidden in your eyes

I see me. In your eyes

With magick in the air, I turn and see your smile
No matter how we cried
Together we will somehow rise

Know in your dark despair
There’s a place for you and me
A broken heart we share
But there’s a place for you and me
Diamonds hidden in your eyes
Diamonds hidden in your eyes

Conversations
By Anna-Christina

Questioning, wondering, waiting, watching
How did you get to be so distressed and miserable
How did you get to be in such a state that's visible
Oh no, not this again, oh no.

In your mind, you will find
Thoughts of cutting, out your kind
How did you get to be so distressed and miserable
How did you get to be in such a state that's visible
Oh no, not this again, oh no.

The conversations in your pretty mind
The conversations in the dark at night when you've

Lost yourself and there's no tomorrow
Just take a breath and you can down your sorrow

On your own, in a state, the key to you, was found too late
How did you get to be so distressed and miserable
How did you get to be in such a state that's visible
Oh no, not this again, oh no.

The conversations in your pretty mind
The conversations in the dark at night when you've

Lost yourself and there's no tomorrow
Just take a breath and you can down your sorrow

Peace Of Mind
By Anna-Christina

Take a little time, read between the lines
Concentrating on the things you're hating
Your adversity, the anger that you see
Releasing poison and a heart that's frozen

Time's the enemy, no escaping you or me
The colours pale in the prison of reality
Don't forget to leave, your sadness and your grief
Cos that's the reason why you can never sleep

Carried by, your lie, hard to find, peace of mind

And how your beauty shines from inside out
A fact you'll never know

You'll never know, how to let go
So concerning is this yearning feeling
Untouchable you seen, restricted you have been
So disarming and your ways are charming

Carried by, your lie, hard to find, peace of mind

And how your beauty shines from inside out
A fact you'll never know
Just let go. It's never too late. To let go

My Ways
By Anna-Christina

Too many troubles
No reason to go the easy way
And in the struggle
The heart is kept away

Can I change my ways.

Do not tell me
Do not tell me I am cursed
You adored me when you saw me at the door
My conscious mind is so deceived and yet I can see
This isn't a healthy way to be, no

Can I change my ways

I stay inside
Not a happy place I know
I am paralyzed
I cannot seem to let go
My hate is so instilled in me
How can I be free?
How can I see the true me?

Can I change my ways

Spit Me Sideways
By Anna-Christina

In these troubled times, feelings of the dark kind
Twist and turn, still the hope and passion burns yes
Though I try to be, honest and free
So infuriating and it's so heart breaking because

You wouldn't believe me if I told you the things I've seen
You wouldn't believe me if I told you
The places I have been

Now you cannot break my soul, no
You cannot break my soul

Could it be, the devil's in me,
Taking all my fears and making them reality because

You wouldn't believe me if I told you the things I've seen
You wouldn't believe me if I told you
The places I have been

Now you cannot break my soul, no
You cannot, you cannot
Take my soul and spit me sideways

So I try
To think I'm just the same as you
No illness in my being
No pre designed sickness in my mind
So I try

In these troubled times, feelings of the dark kind
Twist and turn but still my hope and passion burns

Scum
By Anna-Christina

You open up your mind, to see what you can find
In the middle of May, one fateful day
You try to find solutions, you try to find out why
Your soul feels so heavy, you feel so dark inside

And I know
And I know and I know how you feel
Cos I’ve been there before but the wheel
Keeps on turning and turning until we see

There’s no need to be, a victim of negativity
There’s no need to be, a victim of the scum
There’s no need to be, a victim of negativity
There’s no need to be, a victim

You know that voice inside, you’ve got to listen
Don’t let the scum kill you, don’t let them get you down
And in your deep despair, you try to still care
But life just has no meaning
When pain and hurt is all you’re feeling

And I know
And I know and I know how you feel
Cos I’ve been there before but the wheel
Keeps on turning and turning until we see

There’s no need to be, a victim of negativity
There’s no need to be, a victim of the scum
There’s no need to be, a victim of negativity
There’s no need to be, a victim
