Shinedown - Diamond Eyes (Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom) Lyrics

Shinedown – Diamond Eyes (Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom) Lyrics from “The Expendables” soundtrack

[INTRO-Speaking]
I am the shadow, and the smoke in your eyes,
I am the ghost, that hides in the night

Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM! [x4]

[VERSE]
Wait, wait a minute take a step back
You gotta think twice before you react
So stay, stay a little while
Because the promise not kept is the road to exile
Hey! What’s the circumstance?
You’ll never be great without taking a chance
So, wait, you waited too long
Had your hands in your pocket
When you should’ve been gone

[CHORUS]
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
One push is all you’ll need
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
Fist first philosophy
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
We watch with wounded eyes
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
So I hope you recognize

Out on the front line
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I see the world through diamond eyes

[VERSE]
Damn! Damn it all down
Took one to the chest without even a sound so
What! What are you worth?
The things you love or the people you hurt
Hey! It’s like deja vu
A suicidal maniac with nothing to lose
So wait, it’s the exception to the rule
Every one of us expendable

[CHORUS]
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
One push is all you’ll need
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
Fist first philosophy
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
We watch with wounded eyes
Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
So I hope you recognize

Out on the front line
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I know that I’m alive
Out on the front line
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I see the world through diamond eyes

[BRIDGE]
Every night of my life
I watch angels fall from the sky
Every time that the sun still sets
I pray they don’t take mine

I’m on the front line
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to regrets

Out on the front line
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regrets
And now I know that I’m alive

Out on the front line
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I see the world through diamond eyes

Out on the front line
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I see the world through diamond eyes

Boom-Lay Boom-Lay BOOM!
[REPEAT x8]
