Diamonds Lyrics
In the ash of what we made
We see relief in the refrain
Feel the grief without the pain
In the fire after the rain
To the face behind the mask
There's a question never asked
We're the ones under the ground
Secrets waiting to be found
Everything gets lost
In the midnight fog
Like the diamonds in the dark
People tend to walk right past them
And we all get lost
In the midnight fog
We're the diamonds in the dark
Hiding from the world
Hide me from the world
Hide me from the world
We shiver as we shake
Laid upon the floor like snakes
The uninvited love us best
Strangers kinder than our friends
Nothing moves with no direction
Distance within disconnection
Patterns sewn as time unravels
Broken face no longer fragile
And everything gets lost
In the midnight fog
Like the diamonds in the dark
People tend to walk right past them
And we all get lost
In the midnight fog
We're the diamonds in the dark
Hiding from the world
Hide me from the world
Hide me from the world
Hide me from the world
Hide me from the world
We see relief in the refrain
Feel the grief without the pain
In the fire after the rain
To the face behind the mask
There's a question never asked
We're the ones under the ground
Secrets waiting to be found
In the midnight fog
Like the diamonds in the dark
People tend to walk right past them
And we all get lost
In the midnight fog
We're the diamonds in the dark
Hiding from the world
Hide me from the world
Laid upon the floor like snakes
The uninvited love us best
Strangers kinder than our friends
Nothing moves with no direction
Distance within disconnection
Patterns sewn as time unravels
Broken face no longer fragile
In the midnight fog
Like the diamonds in the dark
People tend to walk right past them
And we all get lost
In the midnight fog
We're the diamonds in the dark
Hiding from the world
Hide me from the world
Hide me from the world
Hide me from the world

Anyone else reminded of Neil Gaiman’s Neverwhere with this song?
@Isabeau D’Anjou yep. I got vibes of Neverwhere in the song Enter, and it just kept going with this song.

i think this song is about people who are hidden gems that we never notice, we "tend to walk right past them". They're not like most other people, they "hide from the world", while everyone else finds themselves drawn to people who put themselves out more. "Strangers kinder than our friends" might talk about those "diamonds in the dark" that stand out so much, even at a first interaction, compared those who are in plain view of everybody in terms of valuable personality.
