That’s the amazing ‚Bittersweet‘ from disk 2:

The original video has rights restrictions so I put here a selfmade version from DiesIrae7. The clip is a collection of different video clips from HIM, The Rasmus and Apocalyptica.

That fits to the autum season … 

 

Lyrics

I’m giving up the ghost of love
in the shadows cast on devotion

She is the one that I adore
creed of my silent suffocation

Break this bittersweet spell on me
lost in the arms of destiny

Bittersweet
I won’t give up
I’m possessed by her

I’m bearing her cross
She’s turned into my curse

Break this bittersweet spell on me
lost in the arms of destiny

Bittersweet
I want you
I’m only wanting you
And I need you
I’m only needing you

Break this bittersweet spell on me
lost in the arms of destiny
Break this bittersweet spell on me
lost in the arms of destiny.
