とまらない涙に封すらもしないで
遠くみえる夢がにじんだとしても
涙がかわく頃には
すでにきっと星となって輝いている
LIKE IT'S DIAMONDS

YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL
どんな顔していてもだいじょうぶ

キミも私も DIAMONDS 磨いて光るの
ひとりにひとつの STONE
WE KNOW YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL...
WE KNOW WE'RE BEAUTIFUL...

IN YOUR HEARTS YOU GOT YOUR DIAMONDS
この心にいつも携える光がよく見えるように
IN YOUR HEARTS YOU GOT YOUR DIAMONDS
高く掲げようもっと上に上に
'CAUSE WE KNOW WE'RE BEAUTIFUL...

IN YOUR HEARTS YOU GOT YOUR DIAMONDS
IN YOUR HEARTS YOU GOT YOUR DIAMONDS
IN YOUR HEARTS YOU GOT YOUR DIAMONDS

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to BANANALEMON's song DIAMONDS are about finding the strength within oneself to keep going despite the tears and struggles one may face. The first verse talks about not bottling up tears but letting them flow, even if it blurs the distant dreams. The tears will eventually dry up and transform into shining stars, like diamonds.

The chorus reassures the listener that they are beautiful no matter how they look, and encourages them to polish their own diamonds and let them shine. The lyrics emphasize that each person has a unique shine, like a one-of-a-kind stone. The second verse talks about carrying the light within one's heart and holding it high, because we know we are beautiful. The chorus repeats and continues to reinforce that everyone has diamonds within their hearts.

The song's message is one of self-love and self-empowerment, reminding us that we are all valuable and special in our own way. The imagery of diamonds and stars add to the theme of shining brightly and radiating one's own unique light.
