Diamonds on the Inside

If you're inclined to bristle because I quote lyrics here from a secular song, please don't.

The application, compared to the potential for misinterpretation, still seems worthwhile.


When you have everything
You have everything to lose.

Make sure the fortune that you seek
Is the fortune that you need

What you say and do not mean
Follows you close behind

Like the soldier long standing under fire
Any change comes as a relief
Let the givers name remain unspoken
She is just a generous thief

She had diamonds on the inside

She wore diamonds in the inside.

Ben Harper
