about

This personal reflection on the relationship between our lead singer and her grandmother, Diana, inspired the name and the energy of our band. Diana is someone we should all aspire to be. She is charitable, independent, witty, creative, and most of all incredibly kind. We are proud to release this song and music video, which we shot at Diana's family home where we all learned the family tradition of canning Jersey tomatoes at the end of the summer. This song is about family, love, and strength.

lyrics

She might've crossed your mind, a few times
She wasn't real, it felt her hair was bright as amber
Her charity perpetual, the way she laughed could ease a fool
I should've let ya know

And all that she taught you were things that you needed
The parts you had lost she had always completed
Her eyes when she saw you lit up like a ballroom
You live for that feeling of seeing her gleaming

She wasn't mine, Diana
Her mind, Diana
I'm blind Diana
I'm blind

I try to be kind Diana
Like you Diana
For you Diana
For you

She walked every day, every way, every corner
Always there but never looking over anybody's shoulder
She was a loner, the kind of stoner
Who invites you over just to know her with a kiss on the cheek

And yes she actually reads, not Facebook advertising
She's got the greatest writing on her arm like a tattooed sleeve

She wasn't mine, Diana
Her mind, Diana
I'm blind Diana
I'm blind

I try to be kind Diana
Like you Diana
For you Diana
For you

She wasn't mine, Diana
Her mind, Diana
I'm blind Diana
I'm blind

I try to be kind Diana
Like you Diana
For you Diana
For you
