Heartbreak, emotional vulnerability, mild violence metaphors
These lyrics deal primarily with emotional pain from a romantic relationship, themes of heartbreak, vulnerability, and the desire to be emotionally invulnerable. The song uses metaphorical imagery such as bullets, daggers, poison, and fire to represent emotional hurt rather than literal violence. References to 'ecstasy' could be interpreted as drug use, though in context it reads more likely as an emotional high. The phrase 'love you black and blue' references bruising, which touches on themes of emotional (and possibly physical) harm in relationships. The overall tone is melancholic and focuses on the pain of love and loss. There is no explicit language, sexual content, or overt drug references. The mature emotional themes of grief, heartbreak, and self-protection make this more suitable for early teens and older.

Hello, sweet grief I know you'll be the death of me Feel like the mornin' after ecstasy I am drowning in an endless sea Hello, old friend Here's the misery that knows no end So I'm doing everything I can To make sure I never love again I wish that I did not know Where all broken lovers go I wish that my heart was made of stone Yeah, if I was bulletproof I'd love you black and blue If I was solid like a jewel If I had a diamond heart, oh-oh I'd give you all my love, if I was unbreakable If I had a diamond heart, oh-oh You could shoot me with a gun of gold, if I was unbreakable I'd walk straight through the bullet Bendin' like a tulip, blue-eyed and foolish Never mind the bruises Into the fire, breakin' through the wires Give you all I've got (if I had a diamond heart) I'd walk straight through the dagger Never break the pattern Diamonds don't shatter, beautiful and battered Into the poison, cry you an ocean Give you all I've got Goodbye, so long I don't know if this is right or wrong Am I giving up where I belong? 'Cause every station's playing our song Goodbye, my love You are everything my dreams made up You'll be Prince and I'm the crying dove If I only were unbreakable I wish that I did not know (ooh) Where all broken lovers go (ooh) I wish that my heart was made of stone (I wish that my heart was made of stone) Yeah, if I was bulletproof (bulletproof) I'd love you black and blue If I was solid like a jewel If I had a diamond heart, oh-oh I'd give you all my love, if I was unbreakable If I had a diamond heart, oh-oh You could shoot me with a gun of gold, if I was unbreakable I'd walk straight through the bullet Bendin' like a tulip, blue-eyed and foolish Never mind the bruises Into the fire, breakin' through the wires Give you all I've got (if I had a diamond heart) I'd walk straight through the dagger Never break the pattern Diamonds don't shatter, beautiful and battered Into the poison, cry you an ocean Give you all I've got Oh, la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la This is the story (la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la) I'd give you all my love (I'd give you) If I was unbreakable (the story, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la) You could shoot me with a gun of gold (shoot) If I was unbreakable I'd walk straight through the bullet Bendin' like a tulip, blue-eyed and foolish Never mind the bruises Into the fire, breakin' through the wires Give you all I've got (if I had a diamond heart) I'd walk straight through the dagger Never break the pattern Diamonds don't shatter, beautiful and battered Into the poison, cry you an ocean Give you all I've got
