Diamonds
Lane 8 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gloss paint your lips like a lover
Hot blood starts flooding into memories
What you said still haunts like a melody
Those times they shine like diamonds
Shoot up this love affair
White lies like knives in a poison heart
Why don't you go and break the heart of me
Just take another little part of me
Why don't you go and take the heart of me
I tell myself it's just the start of me
The lyrics to Lane 8 feat. Solomon Grey's Diamonds convey a sense of nostalgia and heartache, with the singer reminiscing about a past lover who still haunts them. The opening lines express a sense of longing for the person, with the image of their face on the cover and glossy painted lips evoking a desire that still lingers. The mention of hot blood flooding into memories suggests that even though the relationship is over, the passion and intensity of those times still resonates within the singer.
As the song progresses, the chorus introduces the theme of diamonds, which can be seen as a metaphor for the glimmering moments of the relationship that still shine brightly in the singer's mind. The verse "Shoot up this love affair" suggests an addiction to the memories and feelings of the past relationship, which the singer can't seem to break free from. However, the song also acknowledges the pain that was present alongside the joy, with the line "White lies like knives in a poison heart" hinting at the hurt that was at the core of the relationship.
The song ends with the singer asking the person to break their heart again, indicating that even though they know it will hurt, they can't resist the pull of the past. "I tell myself it's just the start of me" suggests that the singer is aware that they need to move forward, but they are struggling to let go of the past.

I was hanging out witha girlfriend of mine in my vehicle cruising down Santa Monica Beach line los Angeles PCH. Bump this song smoothly. She look at me and said "wow, out of all of the men I've been on dates with, I've never heard any of them play music like yours. I knew She was feeling me on that level now. I told her just chill and listen. Lane 8 and I will take care of you. Have a good time. Thank youuuu! We need more of this in our lives right now. .
