Oh, a quick follow up, Youngblood implied that the "Silver thorn" has a literal meaning in the album, but says it's up to the listener to determine what it is. I don't think he's referring to the name of the family being Silverthorne, but he describes silver thorn as a contradiction, that is something both beautiful and painful. I think Silverthorn is a knife; perhaps it relates to how Jolee died, or perhaps it relates to something the brothers did.
