Diamond On a Landmine Lyrics


Slapped my face, slammed the door
A dozen roses lay on the floor
I saw her friends and I was told
She blocked my number from her cellphoneYou said we were meant to be
Now this obsession is killing me
Until I have a heart attack
I'll keep on trying to win you backAlone at last
I can't wait 'til we're alone at last
All I wanted was a second chance
Second chance to hold you in my arms at lastForever, forever
I'll walk a thousand miles
Just to tell her, to tell her
Our love is still aliveAnd I'll never, I'll never
I'll never let it die
Well, you'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmineI'm not so sure about this word
But she kept calling me insecure
I tried to quit but there's no use

'Cause I'm addicted to her abuseShe's in control of everything
I'm just a puppet, she pulls my strings
Denying truth, I'll test my fate
I'll keep on playing this wicked gameAlone at last
I can't wait 'till we're alone at last
All I wanted was a second chance
Second chance to hold you in my arms at lastForever, forever
I'll walk a thousand miles
Just to tell her, to tell her
Our love is still aliveAnd I'll never, I'll never
I'll never let it die
Well, you'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmineYou'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
You'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Waiting to explodeWe're dancing on thin ice before
Frozen from the winter's cold
And if it were to crack below
I'd never let you goAlone at last
I can't wait 'till we're alone at last
All I wanted was a second chance
Second chance to hold you in my arms at lastForever, forever
I'll walk a thousand miles
Just to tell her, to tell her
Our love is still aliveAnd I'll never, I'll never
I'll never let it die
Well, you'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmineBetter watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
You'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Waiting to explodeYou'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
You'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmineYou better won't touch her
She's a diamond on a landmine
You'd better forget her
She's a diamond on a landmine
Waiting to explode

Billy Talent is a Juno Award-winning Canadian rock band formed in 1993. They performed and recorded together for about a decade before finding a wide mainstream following. Originally called Pezz, the group originates from Streetsville, in Mississauga, Ontario, but now hail from Toronto, Ontario.

The name is inspired by a character named "Billy Tallent" in the 1993 book "Hard Core Logo" by Michael Turner (filmed in 1996) and it has been the name of the band since 2001, after a dispute with the American Pezz.

To date, the band have released five studio albums, the first under the name Pezz named "Watoosh!", the second under the Billy Talent name is called "Billy Talent" with the third called "Billy Talent II". The fourth album,"Billy Talent III", released in 2009, was produced by Brendan O'Brien, who previously worked with AC/DC, Rage Against the Machine, Pearl Jam and The Offspring, among others.
The fifth album called "Dead Silence" was released in september 2012.

Drummer Aaron Solowoniuk revealed that the song "This Is How It Goes" was written for him by Ben with the subject being Aaron's struggle with multiple sclerosis, in an open letter to fans posted on the official website in March 2006.
