Beautiful Mourning Lyrics

I think Rob Flynn wrote in Metal Hammer: "This is one of the more personal songs on the album, and is basically about when I was much younger and fried on acid, really depressed and took a razorblade to my wrists. Something stopped me, but I don't know what."

This is such an emotional song. I love how the clean interludes contrast with the sheer rage of the heavier parts. The lyrics are so poetic and sorrowful, and every time I hear it, it still overwhelms me.

Great song, great album, great band.
