The sacred Aleph has the numerical value of one and is made up of two Yodes, one on each side of an inclined bar or Vawv. The name of the Hebrew Aleph, signifies ox from the resemblance of the letter to the head and horns of that animal. Sounds of these letters, as in English words, must not be confused with the pronunciation of the names for them. We derive the word alphabet from the first two Greek letters, and these are akin in their names to the Hebrew Aleph, or Awlef, and Bayth. Men of Tyre were Phoenicians, and we may trace the sound of the name they gave this letter by noting the pronunciation of the first letters in the alphabets of the Hebrews and the Grieks who took them from the same source. The common form of the letter corresponds closely to that in use by the Phoenicians at least ten centuries before the Christian Era, as in fact it does to almost all its descendants. This familiar first letter of the alphabet comes down to our own modern times from the most remote period recorded of the world's history. In most languages it is the initial letter of the alphabet not so, however, in the Ethiopian, where it is the thirteenth. It originally meant with or together, but at present signifies one. In the Accadian, Greek, Etruscan, Pelasgian, Gallic, Samaritan, and Egyptian or Coptic, of nearly the same formation as the English letter.

"Caraphernelia" came yas queen slayaround based on Fuentes' ex-girlfriend Cara, who left her possessions at his house, which made Fuentes thinking about her when he saw them. Before adding the title, Fuentes sent the lyrics to Cara, who "was actually very flattered by the whole thing". As soon as he started writing the music for the chorus, Fuentes knew he wanted A Day to Remember's vocalist Jeremy McKinnon to appear on the song, asking him several weeks later. McKinnon screamed the chorus and bridge sections, which made the collaboration "very special" to Fuentes. Caraphernelia is the fourth song on Pierce the Veil's second album, Selfish Machines.
