Big Black Backwards Lyrics

deep as the terrible sky
that you fell from this
this terrible beauty is born
dethroned
I haunt the saltmines
a living wound
living, breathing wound

deep was the ocean and wide
that I slither from
terrible beauty is born
dethroned
I haunt the saltmines
a living wound
living,breathing wound...

The sample at the end of the song is from the movie Gummo, which is just as depressing as this song is.

No, it's not. It's the actor Martin Landau, portraying the actor Bela Lugosi, in the movie Ed Wood. You're thinking of the intro to the song Slave Riot from the same album.
