I love your skin oh so white
I love your touch cold as ice
And I love every single tear you cry
I just love the way you're losing your life

My Baby, how beautiful you are
My Darling, completely torn apart
You're gone with the sin my Baby and beautiful you are
You're gone with the sin my Darling

I adore the despair in your eyes
I worship your lips once red as wine
I crave for your scent sending shivers down my spine
I just love the way you're running out of life

    Song Meaning:I think this song is so dark yet so beautiful.. It's about loving someone whos sinned and is slowly dying but despite darkness he sees beauty in her.. because he loves her. I'm a dark princess and this is my fave love song.

    General Comment:This song is about Valo killing "her" with descriptive detail.
    If you're interested i explained in detail below.

    "I love your skin oh so white" - (She's dead in his arms admiring her beauty)
    I love your touch cold as ice - (the feel of her lifeless body is cold)
    And I love every single tear you cry - (He loved her misery, his torture, and still does)
    I just love the way you're losing your life" - (He admires the way she is dying)

    Ohohohohoh my Baby, how beautiful you are - (Describes her beauty)
    Ohohohohoh my Darling, completely torn apart - (Describes her misery)
    You're gone with the sin my Baby and beautiful you are
    You're gone with the sin my Darling - ("You're gone with the sin" meaning HIS sin, of killing her.)

    I adore the despair in your eyes - (Despair, emptiness, lifeless)
    I worship your lips once red as wine - (Admires her beauty..)
    I crave for your scent sending shivers down my spine - (He misses her presence)
    I just love the way you're running out of life - (but he adores the way she ran out of life.. praising the way he killed her)

    He loved her, and always will. The reasons to WHY he killed her are gone with her to the grave along with his sin.

    General Comment:Wow so I absolutely love this song and yada yada yada is what I actually wanted to say, but then after reading JUST one page of these comments, I am noticing that it is like fuckin deja vu just about every time I go on a page of H.I.M. lyrics. This retard-asshole licker quiffporn is always going on about how stupid the band is, how the lyrics and music is gay, how he wishes death upon Ville Valo, and how girls that listen to it only do so bc they wanna fuck Ville. Ok, seriously, when is it enough? I THINK WE GET THE FUCKIN POINT. U don't like this band, so if ur gonna get on here and type ur opinion, just fuckin do it and shut the hell up. don't keep goin on and on month after month, year after year blabbing to the fans and acting like a little bitch bc u don't like their music. So what, who cares, get a life, seriously. And for the record, I am a chick, and while Ville Valo is undeniably good looking, I heard the music before I even really knew what he looked like. And I fell in love with the music, not the singer. He's handsome, and I would say cool or whatever, but I don't know the dude personally, I think he has an amazing voice and they write amazing music.

    General Comment:many say "this isnt HIM", but it very similar to many of there great song off of Deep shadows and brilliant highlights. Beautiful and pretending, and like heaven tonight and one last time off of razorblade romance. on every album there are a few slower songs that many skip because they arent "hard" or "fast" enough. yet they are the most beautiful songs they perform

    General Comment:i love this song. a lot of people, even HIM Fans, especially those who review Razorblade say they don't like this because of the slowness in the music, but like the chorus. I'll tell you what I really love about HIM: their sound. They proved that you don't need fancy hard guitars riffs/solos or loud screaming vocals and curses to get by and sell albums. Korn, Slayer, Metallica, Manson, among so many others, are hard (some more than others), vurse, scream, and are basically a typical rock band. I'm not knocking them at all. I used to listen to them and still listen to the stuff I liked from time to time. If you like or liked them, great. Not a problem with me. But HIM is NOT a typical rock band. Teyy're unique & its their uniqueness that got them their chance to shine. Like them or not, hate them or not, respect them or not, if you heard them, it cannot be disputed. Their sound is groundbreaking to the rick genre and I believe rock would be appreciated and attracted by a new audience if rock bands brought someting unique to them and their sound like HIM has. Rarely do I ever listen to a song for its lyrics. I always listen to a song for the sound. Any music I have ever liked/listened to, it was strickly for the music only and I've been listening to HIM more than any other band I know or have heard from. I like Valo's singing voice & style, but love their sound. I respect, appreciate, admire them for what they brought to the rock genre and for what they proved - you don't need to be heavy & loud to be a successful rock band or any band period.

    General Comment:I think He loves her alot but he cant stay with her. He loves watching her suffer over him. I think in this case Sin means Sadness. Sadness is taking over her.
