Maybe he meant it in a sarcastic/ironic sort of way...I'm not defending him, just throwing my two cents.
I realize this is a petty complaint, but at the end of "Scared To Death" when Ville says, "and you're sweet like poison," really upsets me. Not only does it just sound like an unnecessary addition, but it's also factually inaccurate. One of the primary reasons things taste bitter to us, is because taste buds evolved over thousands of years to protect us from poisons, which usually taste bitter.If most poisons tasted sweet, we would have built up a tolerance to that sense, and sugar wouldn't be used in nearly every food we consume now.I'm sorry, but I feel I have to confront Ville on this should we meet on the future tour.

How can one kill loneliness? Loneliness is a feeling, not a living thing. It kind of pisses me off... what was Ville thinking when he wrote that lyric! Make sure you confront him about that too! Don't even get me started on "In The Arms of Rain" WTF!! How can one be held in the arms of that which has no arms? Am I right??
