Jimmy Eat World - Diamond Lyrics

When I find myself awake
I'll put my thoughts down on a page
Half-asleep I'll make a list
Then read back all my greatest hits
Should meditate
Should work out more
Should read until my brain gets sore
Meet someone
Go far away
Try being socially less strange
That's how a diamond grows
You give yourself the right chance over time
Don't believe them if they try to sell you something quicker
I cut at least half of my friends
But no one noticed or mentioned
I thought at last I'd breathe easy
But then I've thought a lot of things
Hey New Year, Hey New You
You left so much low-hanging fruit
In the ring
A title fight
With only montage training time
That's how a diamond grows
You give yourself the right chance over time
Don't believe them if they try to sell you something quicker
That's how a diamond grows
You reach as far as you can and hold tight
Don't believe them if they try to tell you something different
They say a diamond grows with time
I believe it
Cause I've seen it with my eyes
There's a guaranteed parade
Of broken promises
If you expect some kind of miracle
You do what you can do
That's all (all, all)
That's how a diamond grows
You give yourself the right chance over time
Don't believe them if they try to sell you something quicker
That's how a diamond grows
With time
Don't believe them if they try to tell you something different
