A Diamond And A Tether

Pity

take pity on me

Because I'm not the man that I should be

I'm always turning to run

From the people I should not be afraid of

And darling you should know

That I have fantasies about being alone

It's like love is a lesson

That I can't learn

So I make the same mistakes at each familiar turn

I know you can't hold out forever

Waiting on a diamond and a tether

From a boy who won't swim

Who won't dip his toe in

Just to keep you here with him

I've got this habit I abhor

When we go out I'm always watching the door

As if there's someone I'm gonna see

Who could out-do the things that you do to me

I know you can't hold out forever

Waiting on a diamond and a tether

From a boy who won't fly

Who won't take to the skies

If he thinks you're about to say goodbye

Pity

Take pity on me

Because I'm not half the man that I should be

And I don't blame you you've had enough

With all these empty promises and countless bluffs

Cuz I know you can't hold out forever

Waiting on a diamond and a tether

From a boy who won't jump

When he's falls in love

He just stands with his toes on the edge

And he waits for it to disappear again
