"Ain't Love Grand" is the first single from American metalcore band Atreyu's debut album, Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses, released in 2002.
I wrote this after watching someone very close to me go through a devastating break up, and it made me reflect on some things I have been through.
I kind of wrote this to share with my friend that we have gone through the same things, and I feel his pain exactly; the "gutted like a pig" line and "all you want is the world to bleed" were taken verbatim from a convo we had, so in a way he should get partial writing credit on this song.- Alex Varkatzas[1] The music video features the band performing in red room, with footage of party intercut.
At the party, a man becomes intoxicated and eventually blacks out.
Members of the band also are seen as background characters at the party.
