About This Track

'Diamant' casts obsessive desire as a kind of entrapment. The song fixes on a figure of impossible beauty, one whose presence drains the world of colour and the singer of will. The imagery moves between admiration and something darker: eyes that "want to suck the soul" from him, a radiance that becomes a trap. The central conceit is precise and brutal. Beauty, the song insists, is not redemptive; it is a force that consumes. The track builds its argument through repetition and restraint. Rammstein move between verses that establish the spell and a chorus that names it plainly: "You are beautiful like a diamond, beautiful to look at like a diamond, but please let me go." That final plea, repeated, carries the weight. A diamond is prized for its hardness and clarity, its refusal to yield. The song understands that what cannot love must hate, and frames the speaker's only escape as a kind of necessary cruelty. Beauty, rendered as an object rather than a person, becomes something to reject in order to survive.

Lyrics

Diamant

Du bist so schön, so wunderschön
Ich will nur dich, immer nur dich anseh'n
Lässt die Welt um mich verblassen
Kann den Blick nicht von dir lassen

Und dieses Funkeln deiner Augen
Will die Seele aus mir saugen

Du bist schön wie ein Diamant
Schön anzuseh'n wie ein Diamant
Doch bitte lass mich geh'n

Wie ein Juwel, so klar und rein
Dein feines Licht war mein ganzes Sein
Wollte dich ins Herzen fassen
Doch was nicht lieben kann, muss hassen

Und dieses Funkeln deiner Augen
Wird die Seele aus mir saugen

Du bist schön wie ein Diamant
Schön anzuseh'n wie ein Diamant
Doch bitte lass mich geh'n
Welche Kraft, was für ein Schein
Wunderschön wie ein Diamant
Doch nur ein Stein
