Well I've been up yeah

And I've been down

Been kicked around here

This god-forsaken town.

So many faults, so little time.

I've gotta find my piece of mind. 

Peace of mind.



I was looking for somethin'

Anything at all.

Something to believe in.

Spray painted on the walls.

I've made mistakes yeah, I paid for them too.

What's a poor boy supposed to do.



There you sit like a diamond in the rough

You're dirty and you're damaged.

All you need's a little love.

But inside you sparkle, like the stars above.

You'll be there in the morning, when the going gets tough.



There was a time when, I could not say

I got a reason to live another day.

Discarded treasure y'all passed on by

And I can understand the reasons why



There you sit like a diamond in the rough

You're dirty and you're damaged.

All you need's a little love.

But inside you sparkle, like the stars above.

We'll be there in the morning, when the going gets tough.



There you sit like a diamond in the rough

You're dirty and you're damaged.

But inside you sparkle, like the stars above.

We'll be there in the morning, when the going gets tough.



Diamond in the rough

like the stars above.

All you need's a little love.

We'll be there in the morning, when the going gets tough

Diamond in the rough

like the stars above.

All you need's a little love.
