Half of it is about my ex-fiancé who meant everything to me, so once Motograter had fell apart and then her and I dwindled apart it just took a huge part of my life. "That song is a two-part song and it comes across as a relationship piece, which it is. In an interview with, Moody spoke about what "The Bleeding" is about: "The Bleeding" was written by Moody about his ex-fiancé and his former band Motograter. We all took time off hoping that would help resolve the issues and then after a year went by I just got tired of sitting on my ass." There was no love for the music and no love for being on stage with one another, so it just seemed like we were constantly battling one another for different things. It just got to the point where we didn't enjoy what we were doing anymore. Our manager and good friend Steve Richards passed away, then Elektra folded so our label collapsed and then there were a lot of politics involved.

Bathory explained, "In this environment I don't think that bands can allow themselves to stay in a studio for two, three, four years and wait and try to write some masterpiece."
