The fourth track from Chelsea Wolfe’s Pain is Beauty is really all about the pain. The number of references to different kind of torture devices in this song is rather ridiculous. It may be a metaphor for something or it could just be a horror type song.
In an interview with The Quietus, Wolfe said...
[Verse 1]
The saw in the hands, it's white as snow
The heavy endless weight on my heels, it's cold
The water on my head, but I won't speak of you
The hall and the rack and the wheel, it's true
[Chorus]
And when it turns
The hole in my vision fills with you
[Verse 2]
The cold and the loud and they won't let me sleep
I've been dragged on the floor and my blood earns my keep
My body holds a picture of the sun, it's you
The warden bore a hole in my skull, it's true
Tore off my limbs and my breasts
The heart, it's heavy in the chest
[Chorus]
And when it turns
The hole in my vision fills with you
[Outro]
Tore off my limbs
And my breasts
The heart, it's heavy
In the chest
Pulled out my tongue
So I can't speak the truth
The picture in my vision
It’s the sun, it's you
[Counter]
Hole, rack
Wheel, time
Heart, thorn
Knees, blight
Hand, hold
Bright white
Whole head
Feels light
