Salt in Our Wounds Lyrics

Here we are
In the maelstrom of love
Waiting for the calm
To soothe our hearts
Here we are
And don't know how to stop
Waiting for the war
To end it all

Love is insane and baby
We are too
It's our hearts little grave
And the salt in our wounds
Love is insane and baby
So we too, yeah
It's our hearts little grave
And the salt in our wounds

Here we are
Right back where we began
Waiting for sweet love
With open arms
Here we are
Just like before
Waiting for the warmth
Of that tender storm

Love is insane and baby
We are too
It's our hearts little grave
And the salt in our wounds
Love is insane and baby
So we too, yeah
It's our hearts little grave
And the salt in our wounds

The salt in our wounds

Cover art for Salt in Our Wounds lyrics by HIM

i got to know H.I.M. through a quirky guy in 01' summer. This type of music is so not what i listen to... they're so dark so painful, but i don't know why i started to like their music beacuse of this quirky guy. Come to think about it, i owe this guy an apology, cause i said something really bad to him...anywayz...and he'd probably never understand why.

man this song really reminds me of a past relationship, it was like we wanted to get into a fight just to get things out ,but at the same time ever so wanting to feel love for each other. yet another song on the duality of love

Ville Valo's explaining for this song in the book called "Synnin Viemää" (In English that "Synnin Viemää" means Gone with the sin) is pretty funny.. :)

This song litteraly means love is like putting salt in your wounds. Doing this is extreamly painful!

"Love is insane and Baby We are too It's our hearts little grave And the salt in our wounds"

Love is crazy and unpredictable. Loves blinds us and makes us do foolish things and because of this sometimes we set ourselves up for heartache. Or things just go wrong. When this happens we are putting the salt in our wounds.

"Here we are In the maelstrom of Love Waiting for the calm To soothe our hearts..."

One of my all time favorite HIM lyrics. Not only does his voice sound like butter when he sings this part, but its so deliberately perfect. Ville is such a poet.
