HIM

love metal

HIM is one of my favourite bands now
all of their songs manage to capture the pain and sorrow of a lover

the broken hearts
the torn letters
the broken promises
the cold evenings alone

Ville Valo , the lead guy, is a poet
He writes the most kick ass songs

here goes one of them
"Divided we stand in the light of a frozen sun
Cursing the gods we have become

We steal the fire from a sacred heart
And bleed the wine unholy
We fall in love with the serpent's song
And fear nothing

In the nightside of Eden
We're born again dead
Forever we are
Forever we've been
Forever we'll be crucified to a dream
In the nightside of Eden"

- In the Nightside of Eden

and something like this
"Loves the Funeral Of Hearts
and an ode for cruelty,
When angels cry blood
on flowers of evil in bloom,
The Funeral Of Hearts
and a plea for mercy,
when Love is a gun
separating me from you.

She was the sun shining upon
the tomb of your hopes and dreams so frail,
He was the moon painting you
with it's glow so vulnerable and pale.

Love's the Funeral Of Hearts
and an ode for cruelty,
When angels cry blood
on flowers of evil in bloom,
The Funeral Of Hearts
and a plea for mercy,
when Love is a gun
separating me from you.

She was the wind carrying in
all the troubles and fears
he for years tried to forget,
He was the fire
restless and wild and you were
like a moth to that flame.

The heretic seal beyond divine,
A prayer to a god who's deaf and blind,
The last riles for souls on fire,
three little words and a question: why?

Love's the Funeral Of Hearts
and an ode for cruelty,
When angels cry blood
on flowers of evil in bloom,
The Funeral Of Hearts
and a plea for mercy,
when Love is a gun
separating me from you.

The Funeral Of Hearts
and an ode for cruelty
When angels cry blood
on flowers of evil in bloom"

- The Funeral of Hearts

these songs are about loneliness and how someone who was in love, loves the feeling now...

pretty cool stuff eh?
