Lyrics

We've stood at the gate

We've faced challenges or obstacles.

Time and time again tempting fate

We've repeatedly taken risks and tested fate.

We've been through the powerful flows

We've experienced intense and influential situations.

Pulled together how many times

We've united and supported each other many times.

God only knows

The number of times we've overcome challenges is unknown.


All the hard lessons with no regrets

We've learned difficult lessons but have no regrets.

We're still diamonds and cigarettes

Despite challenges, we remain valuable and enduring.


We've thought the same thoughts of the soul

We share similar thoughts about the soul.

With books and songs we've lived the open road

We've embraced a life of exploration through books and songs.

Secondhand cars and making the rent

We've dealt with secondhand cars and financial struggles.

And the unjust world that never seems to make sense

We've faced an unjust world that often lacks logic.


All the hard lessons with no regrets

Despite challenges, we have no regrets about our experiences.

We're still diamonds and cigarettes

We remain valuable and enduring, like diamonds and cigarettes.


For all the dreams we've lost and left

Despite losing and abandoning dreams, we persevere.

We're still diamonds and cigarettes

We are still valuable and enduring despite setbacks.


Diners, busses and trains

Diners, busses, and trains symbolize life's journey.

Show the lessons of the falling rain

Experiences in life are lessons, akin to falling rain.

The highway won't let you grow old

The road doesn't let us age; we are eternal survivors.

We're all survivors on the long road home

We all endure hardships on the extended journey of life.


Never let the drumbeats tell you different

Ignore external influences or criticisms; stay true to yourself.

Or rattle your core

Don't let challenges shake your fundamental beliefs.

Time heals what it can

Time has a healing effect on wounds.

Till you're over the barrel no more

Eventually, you overcome difficult situations.


All the hard lessons with no regrets

Despite lessons learned, we have no regrets about our journey.

We're still diamonds and cigarettes

We remain valuable and enduring, like diamonds and cigarettes.


For all the dreams we've lost and left

Despite losing dreams, we continue to endure and persevere.

We're still diamonds and cigarettes

We are still valuable and enduring despite setbacks.


All these dreams we're riding

We continue to pursue and experience these dreams.
