Contenido

Significado

La letra de esta canción habla acerca de la Fe y la aferración del ser humano a ella. El tema central de la canción es acerca de un creyente en un dios que falla al tratar de curarlo. El material para la letra, nuevamente, refleja los sentimientos e ideas de James Hetfield acerca de la fe y muerte de su madre. Ella junto a su esposo e hijo, estaba ligada a una secta cristiana y no aceptó ninguna ayuda que los hospitales estaban dispuestos a ofrecerles para tratar su situación de cáncer, dando como resultado su muerte.[1]

Curiosidades

  • Es una de las primeras canciones de Metallica afinada en Eb, en vez de en E.
  • En determinada sección se escuchan gatilleos que grabó James Hetfield con uno de sus rifles descargado.
