A Crying Diamond

(album: 1940 Carmen - 2021)

Love cannot be a sin
Says a forty-year-old guy
While rubbing in between the legs
Of a thirteen-year-old girl
She wears tacky dresses
And dreams of being a famous singer
But she barely has enough to eat
"God has chosen you, that's why we are together
I will be your savior and I will make you a superstar"
He says while he fucks her in an alley at night

She doesn't know yet, she's a gem
The brightest diamond in town

Five years have passed
And she cries every day
Her dreams fade
And she no longer believes in God
He killed the last drop of
Her happiness and took all of her youth
And that makes him feel good
He knows that God understands him
Because God is also a man
Because God is also a man

And the motherfucker knows, she's a gem
The brightest diamond in town
She never told anyone because she was afraid
No one was going to believe a small town girl who went
Out at night with her shiny dress and broken shoes

She doesn't know yet, she's a gem
The brightest diamond in town
