Tori Amos - Liquid Diamonds
from the album "From The Choirgirl Hotel"

Surrender then start your engines
You'll know quite soon what my mistake was
For those on horseback 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 woman
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
Liquid
Liquid diamonds

Calling for my soul
At the corners of the world
I know she's playing poker
With the rest of the strangglers
Calling for my soul
At the corners of the world
I know she's playing poker
With the rest, the rest

And if your friends don't come back to you
And you know this is madness
A lilac mess in your prom dress 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 woman
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
Liquid
Liquid diamonds

I come, I go inside a shell
I see it so and you're doing oh so well these days
You do it again and I say it's coming back again
Something like the insanity such was it
Can he bring me those jeans
Keep it back, daddy's done preaching back into himself
Keep it just between us
Liquid, liquid
Liquid
