The lyrics above are incomplete. "Smoking in the dark cinema/ You could see the bad go down again" is repeated at the end. This suggests that this Death figure repeats his killing bouts as Death never stops after all.
It's interesting to note that "love" is alluded to several times. "Moved onwards and outwards to love", "even on the sweetest honeymoon", "The killer of love", and "In vain lovers claimed" (i keep on wanting to say "in vain THE lovers"). This could suggest that Death stops for no one, not even lovers. I find the "In vain lovers claimed" lines extremely sad because what I imagine is that in the face of death the lovers denied "that they never had met" and they forsake each other in the hopes of living. But it was all "in vain" and they died anyway. (Side note: I guess you really love someone if you won't betray them in the face of death)
And J_R, when he says "The killer's blood flows" it doesn't have to mean that his blood is spilling, it could just mean that his blood is pumping as if he's got adrenaline in him.
I think it's also great that this song is all unplugged and has some string instruments. But that's just me.
