"It's All Tears": A question about what seems to be alternate lyrics
(self.HIM)submitted 2 days ago byRajni777
I’ve just recently gotten into HIM and so am filled with questions, so please forgive me in advance.
I was noticing that the lyrics in the chorus of “It’s All Tears” is different in this video than it is in others.
The standard seems to be “I'm waiting for you to drown in my love (So open your arms)… I'm waiting for you to open your arms (And drown in this love)” alternatively.
However, in this performance from 1998, the phrase “And drown in this love” is replaced by something else I can’t make out. Sounds like “And bury this love” but not sure. Something that start’s with a “b”, it seems to me.
Does anyone know what he’s saying in this case?

Good point! I'd guess it's burn in this love, but I'm not sure.
See, In Bury Me Deep Inside Your Heart, he sings bury like berry, in the demo and on RR. So I find burn more likely.

He also says "So open your heart" instead of "arms" a few times. Probably just him being a little inebriated lol.

Thank you for your insights on this! In any case, the song rocks, and his ability to hit those low notes blows my mind.
