Diamonds
Sia Furler B. Levin M.S. Eriksen & T.E. Hermansen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Say them again
They break my will, this bad medicine
And we are victims frozen, holding on to broken gold we are
At arms this war is with my memory, it’s my enemy
We fall shattered hearts,
And all house of cards
Are we wasting time in this chase of diamonds, losing my mind for a taste of sanity
Help me I’m just a little girl drowning, drunk on my dreams and I’m high on this fantasy
We come crashing to reality
Something brings you back to me
Maybe I love the way you laugh so I blur these lines in a beautiful tragedy
There’s something magic, in the tragic
Something calming in the kiss
The crazy days that fade to years, the bright of black
The sweet abyss, Calls
Shattered hearts and all
House of cards
Oh the gravity that pushes me to you push you away
Are we wasting time in this chase of diamonds, losing my mind for a taste of sanity
Help me I’m just a little girl drowning, drunk on my dreams and I’m high on this fantasy
We come crashing to reality
Something brings you back to me
Maybe I love the way you laugh so I blur these lines in a beautiful tragedy
We fall, shattered hearts
And all, house of cards
Oh the gravity that pushes me to you push you away
The lyrics to "Diamonds" by Sia Furler B. Levin M.S. Eriksen & T.E. Hermansen explore the complexity and contradiction of a romantic relationship where love and pain are intertwined. The singer is caught up in a cycle of pushing and pulling with her lover, oscillating between being drawn to their chemistry and fleeing from the heartbreak it brings. The first verse reflects the emotional friction in the relationship as the singer struggles to cope with the empty promises and emotional manipulation her partner delivers. She is aware of the toxicity of the situation, yet finds herself holding onto the broken promises and hopes. It seems as if the war is not with the partner but with the singer's own memories and fears.
Line by Line Meaning
Fill this awkward silence with your empty words
Please speak something to avoid this uncomfortable silence between us
Say them again
Repeat the words that you just said to me
They break my will, this bad medicine
Your words are hurting me and making me feel powerless
And we are victims frozen, holding on to broken gold we are
We are both victims of our past and holding onto things that are no longer valuable
At arms this war is with my memory, it’s my enemy
I am constantly fighting a war with my memories which are now my enemies
We fall shattered hearts,
We both fall with broken hearts
And all house of cards
Everything we have built is fragile and can come tumbling down easily
Oh the gravity that pushes me to you, push you away
I am pulled towards you but at the same time I want to push you away
Are we wasting time in this chase of diamonds, losing my mind for a taste of sanity
Are we chasing something that is not worth our time and losing our minds in the process?
Help me I’m just a little girl drowning, drunk on my dreams and I’m high on this fantasy
I am overwhelmed and lost in my own thoughts and imagination
We come crashing to reality
We are forced to face the harsh reality of the situation
Something brings you back to me
There's something that keeps us connected and brings us back together
Maybe I love the way you laugh so I blur these lines in a beautiful tragedy
My love for you makes me ignore the problems in our relationship and creates a beautiful tragedy
There’s something magic, in the tragic
Even in the midst of tragedy, there's something enchanting about it
Something calming in the kiss
Even in the middle of turmoil, a kiss can be a calming force
The crazy days that fade to years, the bright of black
The chaotic times eventually become distant memories and leave us with a range of emotions
The sweet abyss, Calls
The unknown and mysterious future is calling us
Oh the gravity that pushes me to you push you away
The strong attraction I feel towards you also creates a desire to push you away

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Find light in the beautiful sea, I choose to be happy
You and I, you and I, we're like diamonds in the sky
You're a shooting star I see, a vision of ecstasy
When you hold me, I'm alive, we're like diamonds in the sky
I knew that we'd become one right away
Oh, right away
At first sight I felt the energy of sun rays
I saw the life inside your eyes
So shine bright, tonight, you and I
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Shine bright like a diamond (whoa)

Shine bright like a diamond. (3x)
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky.
