A Diamond To Be Born

Vulnerable love

Vulnerable strength

I've been dreaming

That a diamond would be born

The more I love you

The more light I let in

I've been dreaming

That the pressure would be pure

And a diamond would be born

I look at myself through a broken lens

Try my best to keep from unraveling

And the child inside is looking out

And holding on to the dream

That your love would cause a diamond to be born

Oh, all the things I've tried

The things I've run from

Search for a better life

It was me, I know

Just want to be

Just want to be free

In the search for a better way
