Beauty
Breath Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Men's desires can be their ruin
dreams are a breeding ground
To sow the seeds of torment
Now there is no return

The box was opened and they came
Creatures from the unknown
hungry for pain and flesh
Angels to some, demons to others

The Lament Configuration
Is spreading fear and madness
Heavy chains ripping your skin
An eternity to suffering

Cenobites in an evil form
Will tear your soul apart
Maze of torment before the eyes
Foolishness is wait for the sky


I’m the way
come with us
hell waits
experience our pleasures
jesus wept
and you will too
I am pain
and I'm inside you

shallow are the words of all
without mercy to those who cry
time has come don need to fight
They take control and bring you down

solve the puzzle and turn the key
such sights, too much to see




the hellbound heart possess your life
The beauty of suffering rules mankind

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Beauty" by Breath depict the harm that men's desires can cause, and how dreams can be a source of pain. The lyrics suggest that the pursuit of desires can lead to torment, and that once they are set in motion, there is no going back. The box that was opened unleashes unknown creatures who are both angels and demons that are hungry for pain and flesh. The Lament Configuration is the name of the puzzle box that is central to the plot of the 1987 horror movie "Hellraiser" and its subsequent sequels, where it serves as a portal to another realm inhabited by demons known as Cenobites. The box has the power to spread fear and madness, and its opening leads to an eternity of suffering as heavy chains rip the skin of the unwary. The Cenobites, once angels, are now in an evil form, and they will tear apart your soul. The lyrics paint a picture of a maze of torment that is waiting for those that foolishly seek pleasures.


As the song progresses, the chorus of the song is sung from the perspective of the Cenobites, as they beckon to the singer to join them in their realm. They offer to let him experience their pleasures, making an allusion to a Hellish paradise. The lyrics reference "Jesus Wept," which is a quote from "Hellraiser" and is the last thing a character called Frank Cotton said before being sucked into the Lament Configuration. The Cenobites quote this line as a reference to the singer's inevitable suffering. They state that they are pain and are inside the singer, alluding to the idea that the singer's pain is self-inflicted. The lyrics suggest that those who cry out for mercy will be met with no compassion, and that it is pointless to resist the Cenobites' control. Finally, the lyrics assert that the beauty of suffering rules mankind, implying that the merits of pain and torment outweigh those of joy and happiness.

She was beautiful without the surgery. I feel sorry for the actress, she doesn't deserve to be portrayed this way.

@supernova7848

frerr2 agreed

@RecoveringChristian

Shes super funny and awesome in other shows. When she appeared i audibly squeeled and immediately thought i would totally prefer to see her lead a show on her own than keep watching this tripe

@RecoveringChristian

Feel worse for the girl cast in Lets Eat 2. No name. Literally came in to look ugly, eat food sadly and let the writers and directors shit all over her. The role doesn't scream I respect you and am trying to tell a compelling human story. It's what a skinny cis man thinks a stereotypical fat chick is experiencing.
