We are now liking the feeling, just like alcohol. It doesn't matter what happens to us or our life, even if the world starts to break apart before our eyes, we still consume alcohol just like we are consuming love here, we are getting addicted to love. " Love is like a sin, my love, For the ones that feel it the most Look at her with her eyes like a flame She will love you like a fly will never love you again " The first line of the above para is very important. As you shall see, The person in these lines has already realized how sinful love is and how we, under its control, damage our life as well as someone else's life. IN SPITE OF THIS FACT, she is still in love, as apparent by the part "...,my love". She is still doing the sin and is being controlled by the "devil". She adds that love is a sin for those who really feel it, truly and passionately. She tells his lover that this is how love works. Look at her with love and affection and warmth and she will come to you (as a general rule of nature) blindly and passionately and helplessly only to destroy herself and everything she was and everything she had JUST LIKE a fly helplessly gets attracted to a flame, killing itself. Therefore, as you can see, humans are being compared to flies which just leap into fire and kill themselves, we also let love consume ourselves, even when we know that it's the end and we can't stop this from happening, ever. It's just a matter of time when we "fall" in love.">
I think the song is about what love really is. How a person who is madly in love can lead herself (As in this case) to her annihilation (figuratively).
" It's unfortunate that when we feel a storm We can roll ourselves over 'cause we're uncomfortable Oh well, the devil makes us sin But we like it when we're spinning in his grip "
It says that is it unfortunate that we just "roll ourselves over", meaning, we just go to someone when we are uncomfortable or something is not going right in our life, looking for acceptance, love, to be caressed and taken care of, we desperately start to look for someone close and special, even though we were doing perfectly fine when things were going fine. This tendency, this behavior is dangerous and it makes us a prey of the devil, falling in the "sin" which is what is used to refer to love here. Once we are in love, when we have done that sin, there is no way of coming out and setting ourselves free.
"But we like it when we're spinning in his grip" -> We are now liking the feeling, just like alcohol. It doesn't matter what happens to us or our life, even if the world starts to break apart before our eyes, we still consume alcohol just like we are consuming love here, we are getting addicted to love.

I was thinking the same thing when I heard the song, man :) maybe it's just cause of the state of mind I'm in now though, like I can totally relate to it. Uknow?

wow you seriously just described what I couldn't describe. This is exactly what the song is about. Because regardless, when you are falling into love you feel that sense of sinfulness and it just feels so good you keep falling deeper and deeper even though you know its sinful. You watch yourself loose everything you had,but you don't care. Thanks for your interpretation because its absolutely correct

@navienavnav This song leaves room for so many interpretations, which is what makes it so intriguing. Guess people see it according to what they're living/feeling at the time, and this description fits me like a glove right now :)
