letra de fake diamonds, false powers - alex dupree

[verse 1]
can’t think of a time when your love was true
can’t think of one kind word that you said
but i got on a plane because you asked me to
with a suitcase full of contraband
we met in istanbul at taksim square
i thought the plan was suicide
to shake down one of the billionaires
at a cafe in broad daylight
but i put my jacket on, and i did my part
security was swift, and they slammed me to the car
but your whereabouts, i kept them hidden in my heart

[chorus]
fake diamonds
false powers i gave you
[verse 2]
in prison, i did fifteen years
always dreaming of my reward
then i worked a boat back to the gulf
where i heard that you had been holding court
in the spanish moss and the neon haze
from the pool, you met my eyes
and by the proposition in your gaze
it’s clear you don’t even recognize me
and i remembered at once every promise i had kept
while you played you were king of the kingdom of death
in a palace, you built out of nothing except

[chorus]
the fake diamonds
the false powers i gave you

[verse 3]
like branches in a hurricane
that fall in disbelief
i came inside and lay across your bed
filled with a terrible sense of relief
and the moon flashed in my prison blade
as it found your heart of stone
and the look you gave me was pure surprise
as we rolled out into the open
and i knelt to put my weight against you where you bleed
as the rain goes on to make a mirror of the street
and it’s weird, so many crowding at the hour of your defeat
and not one of them gonna come down here and save you
fake diamonds, false powers i gave you
