Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let me sleep away these memories within
Sacrifices of purities are turning into sins
And this judgment day is drawing near
And this confession is killing me again
This beautiful tragedy
Is crashing into me
So now you lay yourself down in this grave with shattered eyes
Beautiful melodies to try and wash away the lies
And this judgment day is drawing near
And this confession is killing me again
This beautiful tragedy
Is crashing into me
This dying destiny
Take me away
This beautiful tragedy
Come crashing into me
This dying destiny
Will you be there
Will you be there by my grave
Or will you be
The death of me.
In my, my beautiful tragedy
This beautiful tragedy
Is crashing into me
This dying destiny
Take me away
This beautiful tragedy
Come crashing into me
This dying destiny
In this song, the lyrics describe a feeling of being burdened by memories and the weight of one's past. The writer uses the metaphor of a "beautiful tragedy" to describe this experience, implying that there is something striking and captivating about the pain they are feeling. The lines "sacrifices of purities are turning into sins" and "this confession is killing me again" suggest a cycle of guilt and shame that is difficult to break free from. The idea of judgment day creates a sense of urgency, as if the singer is running out of time to make things right. The second verse introduces the idea of self-destruction, as the singer seems to be losing hope that they will ever be able to escape their pain. The final lines are a plea for connection and support, wondering if someone will be there to help them through their struggles or if they will be left to self-destruct.
Overall, the lyrics are a powerful and emotional representation of someone struggling to come to terms with their past and find a way forward. The use of metaphors and vivid imagery create a sense of intensity and urgency, while the repetition of the phrase "beautiful tragedy" lends a sense of poetic beauty to the pain the singer is experiencing.

"What happened to then?"
"We passed it"
"When?"
"Just now. We're at now, now"
"Go back to then!"
"When?"
"Now."
"Now?"
"Now!"
"I can't"
"Why?"
"We missed it"
"When?"
"Just now"
"...When will then, be now?"
"Soon"

+Daniel Gebhart Thats not what the new songs are about at all :o.
Adrenalize is about getting out there and living life and enjoying it and indulging in excess and indulgant behaviour before you die and not wasting a day.
Sick Like Me is about finding beauty in twistedness/uglyness. A black widow spider is small and beautiful but deadly, it kills and eats its mate shortly after mating. A male black widow is harmless. There are women out there who are like the black widow spider, beautiful, small and seemingly harmless but are dangerous. This is what the song is about, those type of women. Deceptively controling or dangerous women or people, doesn't have to be about a woman.
Sex Metal Barbie is about "f the haters", but its also about overcoming the gossip and rumours. They took all of the shit being said about them and used it to make a song, they overcame that. Alot of people in the metal community like to blame her for stuff and generally use her as a scapegoat when they refer to metal being "mainstreamed". She is talking about taking all of this hate and using it to her advantage and thrive.
Whore is about "taking back control. It is about taking the power from a disgusting and degrading word and turning it back around on the accuser. It's about self empowerment, love, and liberation It is about finding our power and taking a stand. We are resilient beings and need to realize our incredible strengths. I will not bow down to others perceptions of me. I will only rise in the name of art, love and music. One of the best things about the song Whore, is all the feelings and thoughts that the word alone provokes and thas great but at the end of the day it just a word, the only power it really has is the power that we give it. It's really just about taking the power back from the word" - Chris and Maria
All of this is from interviews with the band members with alittle interpretation thrown in, but mostly Maria and Chris's words.

I can't believe this video was uploaded 16 years ago. Youtube was barely a blip on the radar. I remember watching this video on Comcast On Demand in 2007! It's a badass song.
