The Beauty
Fury In The Slaughterhouse Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The music's too loud and the drinks are too cheap
The head on the counter and I fall asleep
I'm looking for someone but I don't know where
She fills up my glass, only one more to go
She gives me a smile and the time feels too slow
I know I should leave
But I just can't go
But I can't see
The beauty this world shows me
I can't see
But I can't see
This world tells me what to do
I can't see
The beauty, the beauty is you

The eyes gettin' heavy and I wish I had
A girl like an angel to warm up my bed
The whole world is turning
And me around myself
But I can't find her although she is so close
I'm too drunk to speak and she taps on my nose
Two green eyes to sink in
And I keep on drinking

But I can't see
The beauty this world shows me
I can't see
But I can't see
This world tells me what to do
I can't see
Hey

I can't see
I can't see

I can't see
The beauty this world shows me
I can't see
But I can't see
This world tells me what to do
I can't see

And I know, and I know, and I know it's true
'Cause I see the beauty is you
And I know, and I know, and I know it's true
By God that beauty is you
Hey

I can't see
This world tells me what to do




I can't see
The beauty, the beauty is you

Overall Meaning

The Fury in the Slaughterhouse's song, "The Beauty," explores themes of loneliness, desperation, and the search for companionship. The singer of the song finds himself in a cheap bar, drowning his sorrows in alcohol and seeking the company of a woman to share the night with. He is intoxicated, yearning for someone to take care of him, yet unable to see the goodness in the world and the beauty that surrounds him.


The lyrics paint a picture of a man lost in his own troubles, unable to appreciate the simple things that give life meaning. The world has become too loud for him, and he feels trapped in his own misery. He longs for a woman to come and rescue him, but his drunken state prevents him from making any lasting connections.


The refrain of the song, "I can't see the beauty this world shows me, but I can't see, the beauty is you," suggests that the singer is aware of his own blindness to the beauty of the world, but he recognizes that the woman he's searching for embodies the goodness and positivity that he is seeking.


Overall, "The Beauty" is an emotionally charged song that explores feelings of despair and the search for connection. It highlights the importance of recognizing the beauty in the world and the people around us, even in times of darkness and difficulty.
