If I'm a diamond then why do I feel so rough?
I'm as strong as a stone even that's not enough
There's something jagged in me I keep making mistakes
I thought diamonds were hard though I feel I could brake
Would you believe
That I've always wished I could be somebody else
Yet I can't see what I need to do to be the gem That I wanna be
I've been told my whole life what to do what to say
No gem showed me that there might some better way
And now I feel like I'm lost I don't know what to do
The ground is sinking away I'm about to fall through
Would you believe
That I've always wished I could be somebody else
Yet I can't see
What I need to do
