Is Love the Funeral of Hearts?

Love's the funeral of hearts

And an ode for cruelty

When angels cry blood

On flowers of evil in bloom



The funeral of hearts

And a plea for mercy

When love is a gun

Separating me from you



Do you agree with that?



(By the way, I'm not "emo" or anything - I just happen to like this song!)
Is Love the Funeral of Hearts?
the more you expect out of love , the more it hurts you. People should expect so much out of it and just live according to. Love yourself more than the person youre in love, so if they hurt you, you still know you have the utmost love. Poepleonly do to you what you allow them to.
Reply:Emo? Where the hell did you get that from?!! "HIM" happens to be "Gothic Rock". Probably one of the best out there. Ville Valo is genius. Oh, and as far as love....love is death...listen to thy heart.



Take care, sweetheart.
Reply:"To love is to suffer.

To avoid suffering one must not love.

But then one suffers from not loving.

Therefore, to love is to suffer;

not to love is to suffer;

to suffer is to suffer.

To be happy is to love.

To be happy, then, is to suffer,

but suffering makes one unhappy.

Therefore, to be unhappy,

one must love or love to suffer

or suffer from too much happiness."

--Diane Keaton, Love and Death (1975)
Reply:emo? What's that?



I don't agree with this pessimistic view of love being a funeral of hearts. Plea for mercy? Angels crying blood? Doesn't sound ANYTHING like love to me. More like some bloodbath!
Reply:Yes, love is suicide !





I like H-I-M , Funeral of Hearts is a sad song !
Reply:well that depends on whether or not you believe in separation
Reply:nah, its not. Love enlightens the soul in various ways.
Reply:Love is when the heart is most alive, and most vulnerable.....any kind of disturbance of love can lead to that funeral.
Reply:Pathetique Miserable.
Reply:in some cases i would say yes
Reply:Love is a smile on your face
Reply:Love is the cultural symbol for the perfect relationship. Like all human ideas of 'perfect' it can not exist in reality and is only an unattainable goal that you are force to believe in.

The song is talking about disappointment more than the icon of LOVE.

An expectation that the 'perfect relationship' was attainable and available was developed and when the realization that this was not the case, as in every case, disappointment causes the imagined suffering referred to here.



In the end it is just that the writer of this song did not get what they want and are angry about it.
