Truly captures the feeling of heartbreak tbh. Some of my favorite lyrics in IHM I relate to the feeling of all or nothing sometimes it feels like you gotta throw everything away after a loss

It's about love gone sour.

As for the title "Skinny Love" it could be an affectionate term he gave his petite girlfriend, or maby the fact that their love is wasting away- shrinking to skinny. The latter is probably more likely, due to the reference in the first line ("Come on, skinny love just last the year").

"pour a little salt, we were never here" Salt has healing properties, when put on open wound they help the process along. Probably metaphorically speaking, he wants this doomed relationship to heal, to even "Just last the year." I like the vivid imagery to blood and crushed veneer in a sink, as if a vase was broken in a fit of rage. I dunno if that ties into the salt reference, maby indirectly.
he then basically tells her to let him go, to cut off the tethers binding him to her.
the third stanza deals wih a blaming the other for the failure of the relationship. She couldn't meet with his expectations, either that or she treated him poorly, probably both.
stanza four seems like a mixture of memories, stating why have we gone wrong when we once loved each other? and how even though the burden of pain (through separating) is heavy, it's still hard to "split."
The last part gives us a glimse as to WHY it went sour. it seems she kind of led him on, that she wasn't that into him- when he really cared for her.
He then states that its unlikely she'll find anyone worthwhile, no one will be able to love her for all the stuff she puts her partners through.
wonderfully honest and emotional, i love this song.
“Year Zero” is basically Ghost at their most grand and decadent, and the lyrics hit that sweet spot where theatrics, blasphemy, and dark humour all fuse into something strangely uplifting. The incantation-style name-chanting shouldn’t work on paper, but in context it feels bold and operatic, like you’re being invited into a forbidden ritual with full stadium swagger. It’s clever, it’s tongue-in-cheek, and it commits so hard to its own aesthetic that you can’t help but grin and go along for the ride.

To me this song is about letting your inner child come out and be kind and beautiful and lovable to yourself and to others who can see you and witness you. We should not be so critical of each other but try to help each other grow instead with gentle help and positive suggestions instead of criticism. And mostly we should look for and really love on that true inner child that wants to come out and be safe. Dale Carnegie said to say all the positive things first before you bring up anything negative. That’s...

And mostly we should look for and really love on that true inner child that wants to come out and be safe. Dale Carnegie said to say all the positive things first before you bring up anything negative. That’s because we are all harder on ourselves than anyone else can possibly be. And if you criticize someone who is already feeling bad about themselves, then you just add to their burden. It’s much better to love what Is good and actively help them with what they hate about themselves, which puts you on their side.
This song is a sad commentary on people who are too afraid to share their real thoughts and feelings and consider their real needs and wants and how to satisfy them for each other to build a lasting relationship. If you hide in fear, you risk losing your chance to have love. This is a big reason so many people are incels or lonely. Don’t be creepy, clean yourself up and make yourself look like your beautiful inner child. Make yourself lovable to yourself. Then pursue your real passions and dreams even if only in...
This song is a sad commentary on people who are too afraid to share their real thoughts and feelings and consider their real needs and wants and how to satisfy them for each other to build a lasting relationship. If you hide in fear, you risk losing your chance to have love. This is a big reason so many people are incels or lonely. Don’t be creepy, clean yourself up and make yourself look like your beautiful inner child. Make yourself lovable to yourself. Then pursue your real passions and dreams even if only in baby steps and meet lots of people. It’s a numbers game. And finally be willing to be honest and vulnerable about your needs, wants and feelings. If you have given value to the other and care about their happiness, it will shine through and they will see your True Colors, and you can see if you both can satisfy each others needs and wants enough for it to last.
The singer was in love and played the fool, and the relationship is sadly broken. He realized he had to find someone who is “Happy to Give you Love,” not just something chemistry or hormones, but an actual true, committed, realistic, lasting relationship based on satisfying each others real needs and wants. You gotta make yourself attractive and lovable and love and know yourself and your needs and wants, and cast your net so wide, meeting enough people that have similar interests to yours that you find that one that is “Happy to Give you Love.”

The woman in the song has been hurt before and seeks comfort in sleeping with more than one man without finding real love. The singer says to just pretend and lie that he is the only one she ever loved, but he’s older now and also looks for real love and not just sexual comfort. It’s a very sad song about the hurt and the lack of real love and commitment resulting in a longing for real lasting connection that is never satisfied. And they grow older and sadder. You gotta make yourself attractive and lovable...

This song is about the fall of mankind at the edge of thorns when the attempt was made to cover ones own sin by using fig leaves and God slaughtered and animal most likely a sheep and covered then with animal skins to teach them that life had to be given as blood was shed to cover the sin or travesty. This all led up to Jesus The Christ on the cross
