I will piggy back on some of the comments made thus far on this song.
I see this song telling the story of a man who believes he was born sinister from the day he was born and being held in the arms of his mother.
The first verse reads as a conversation between him and his lover and also lays out his seeming bleak perspective on the world. I say seemingly because as the second verse goes he acknowledges that his soul is tortured but also seems to revel in the fact he's good with his knife in the dark.
A drop that spreads from the day he's born rspeaks to how over time his eveil deeds have gradually increased like a toxic chemical dropped into water.
From the sinister kid's perspective this is his realit he fully accepts. "Thats me, the kid with the broken halo". His fate was pre-determined by the devil, a fallen corrupted angel, and in effect he himself is like the devil with his "broken halo".
