Killing Loneliness - HIM




Killing loneliness is a song written by Ville Valo, singer from the Finnish band HIM.
Melancholy, sadness, romanticism and sensuality are the perfect combination in this song and video. That’s the main feature of this band, feelings and darkness.
I love HIM songs because you can give them the meaning you want to. This song seems to be a love song; “with the warm of your arms you saved me” makes you think that he is telling to a woman that she saved him from loneliness.
However some people think the author is talking about drugs. And that’s true. Ville Valo declared that the song is related to a close friend who is a heroin addict and he used to say he consumed to killing loneliness. We can notice it in the phrase “with the venomous kiss you gave I’m killing loneliness”.
The songwriter Ville Valo wrote this song to his friend to realize how drugs were consuming him and leading him to death.
