Sonic Youth - The Diamond Sea lyrics

[Sonic Youth - The Diamond Sea lyrics]

Time takes it's crazy toll
And how does your mirror grow?
You better watch yourself when
You jump into it
'Cause the mirror's gonna steal your soul

I wonder how it came to be my friend
That someone just like you has come again
You'll never, never know how close you came
Until you fall in love with the diamond rain

Throw all his trash away
Look out, he's here to stay
Your mirror's gonna crack when
He breaks into it
And you'll never, never be the same

Look into his eyes and you can see
Why all the little kids are dressed in dreams
I wonder how he's gonna make it back
When he sees that you just
Know it's make believe

Blood crystallized to sand
And now I hope you understand
You reflect into his looking glass soul
And now the mirror is your only friend

Look into his eyes and you will see
That men are not alone on the diamond sea
Sail into the heart of the lonely storm
And tell her that you'll love her eternally

Time takes it's crazy toll
Mirror fallin' off the wall
You better look out for
The looking glass girl
'Cause she's gonna take you for a fall

Look into his eyes and you shall see
Why everything is quiet and nothing's free
I wonder how he's gonna make her smile
When love is running wild on the diamond sea
