[Verse 1]
We're still breathing
This can't be love
Baby, we're trying
Shed a few tears more
Oh, we keep on running
Just to get caught
And we know this is
Exactly what we want

[Chorus]
We fear for the best and hope for the worst
(Too happy to be alive)
What love's lies blessed, love's light cursed
(Too happy to be alive)

We fear for the best and hope for the worst
(Too happy to be alive)
What love's lies blessed, love's light cursed
(Too happy to be alive)

[Verse 2]
Now we feel it coming
Piercing our hearts
Fingers crossed
And we're praying nothing goes wrong
And finally, it's happening
Just a knock on our door
Our hearts are beating
Oh, it's just begun

[Chorus]
We fear for the best and hope for the worst
(Too happy to be alive)
What love's lies blessed, love's light cursed
(Too happy to be alive)

We fear for the best and hope for the worst
(Too happy to be alive)
What love's lies blessed, love's light cursed
(Too happy to be alive)

[Chorus]
We fear for the best and hope for the worst
(Too happy to be alive)
What love's lies blessed, love's light cursed
(Too happy to be alive)

We fear for the best and hope for the worst
(Too happy to be alive)
What love's lies blessed, love's light cursed
(Too happy to be alive)

[Outro]
(Too happy, too happy)
And we're too happy to be alive
(Too happy, too happy)
And we're too happy to be alive
(Too happy, too happy)
'Cause we're too happy to be alive
Oh, my love, so...

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
I taste death
In every kiss we share
And every sundown
Seems to be the last we have
Your breath on my skin
Has the scent of the end
I'm drunk on your tears, baby
Can't you see I'm bleeding?

[Bridge]
Inside you, I am free
And I'm still waiting
Won't you let me dream
With you, baby?
And I'm afraid to feel
I'm afraid you love me
'Cause you are the one, oh...
You are the one, my love

[Verse 2]
Every time we touch
We get closer to heaven
And at every sunrise
Our sins are forgiven
You on my skin
This must be the end
The only way you can love me
Is to cut me again
And again and again and again and again

[Pre-Chorus]
Inside you, I am free
And I'm still waiting
Won't you let me dream
With you, baby?
And I'm afraid to feel
I'm afraid you love me
'Cause you are the one

[Chorus]
Your love is a razorblade’s kiss
Sweetest is the taste from your lips
Your love is a razorblade’s kiss
Sweetest is the taste from your lips

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, the taste from your lips
Oh, the taste from your lips
Oh, just the taste from those lips
Oh, the taste from your lips

[Pre-Chorus]
Only inside, I am free
I'm tired of waiting
You've got to let me dream
Inside you, baby
I'm not afraid to feel
I want you to love me
'Cause you are the one
'Cause you are the one
'Cause you are the one

HIM - Razorblade Romance (Demo 1998)

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
There was a time
When I could breathe my life into you
One by one
Your pale fingers started to move
And I touched your face
And all death was erased
You smiled like an angel
Fallen from grace

[Chorus]
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
We keep begging for more
Of this resurrection
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
We keep begging for more
Of this resurrection

[Verse 2]
You kissed my lips
With those once-cold fingertips
You brought me back to life
Life
All things come to an end
We don't have to pretend
To fall asleep
Just to wake up again

[Chorus]
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
We keep begging for more
Of this resurrection
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
We keep begging for more
Of this resurrection

[Chorus]
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
We keep begging for more
Of this resurrection
We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
We keep begging for more
Of this resurrection

[Outro]
Of this resurrection
Of this resurrection
Of this resurrection

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
The sun that she can't stand
Won't ever leave her alone
So now she's smiling
Like heaven's down on earth
And all her wishes
They finally come true
Her heart is weeping
This happiness is killing her
Crushing her

[Chorus]
'Cause she'll be right here in these arms
Waiting for love
She'll be waiting in these arms
She can't let go
She'll be right here in these arms
Waiting for love
She'll be waiting in these arms
She can't let go

[Verse 2]
The sun is shining
Too bright on her
Again, her heart is weeping
This happiness is killing her
It's crushing her heart
The sun that she's kissing
Won't ever leave her alone
Never let her go

[Chorus]
'Cause she'll be right here in these arms
Waiting for love
She'll be waiting in these arms
She can't let go
She'll be right here in these arms
Waiting for love
She'll be waiting in these arms
She can't let go

[Refrain]
The sun that she's kissing
Won't ever leave her alone
Never let her go

[Chorus]
'Cause she'll be right here in these arms
Waiting for love
She'll be waiting in these arms
She can't let go

She'll be right here in these arms
Waiting for love
She'll be waiting in these arms
She can't let go
She'll be right here in these arms
Waiting for love
She'll be waiting in these arms
She can't let go

[Outro]
She'll be right here in these arms

HIM - Right Here In These Arms (Demo 1998)

This track is a raw, introspective anthem about the quiet rebellion of speaking your truth in a world that silences dissent through subtle pressures rather than outright force. It explores the tension between societal conformity and personal authenticity, using the metaphor of "whispering loud" to capture how genuine expression often feels muted but carries explosive, underground power. The song critiques the invisible chains of fear, peer judgment, and performative "free speech" that keep people from voicing unfiltered thoughts, while celebrating the resilience of those who persist anyway.

Whisper Loud

Theme: Industrial blindness.
A furious opener with heavy guitars and mechanical drums — describing a civilization that confuses progress with suffocation.
Lyrics compare city skylines to “iron lungs” that keep a dying world breathing for profit.
Emotion: Anger and claustrophobia.


Age of Smoke

Nemmeno le lacrime di Dio sono riuscite a purificarmi
