| The Boxer Rebellion – Diamonds Lyrics | 10 years ago |
| I think when he says "I'm no good next to diamonds," he is referring to the gem in an engagement ring. He means that when it comes time to commit to marrying someone, he can't, and he ultimately disappoints them. "When I'm too close they start to fade." When he starts to get close to marrying someone he becomes even more distant than he had ever been in the past. | |
