Marilyn Manson - Born Villain

Stare into my Kodachrome jackhammer I-eyes never thought you’d see
The asphalt crack-crack-crack like a black eggshell

Don’t ever say I never warned you from the start
Don’t ever say I never warned you from the start
You’re not a shovel and I’m not your dirt

Manson: “Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more: this is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,that signifies nothing.”


Is there any way to unswallow my pride?
Can I fuck myself down?
Why die when you can kill the father?
.......???????????????,..........

Every breath confessed at a person no longer present-tense
Every breath confessed at a person no longer present-tense
No, no, no, no, no reason
No, no, no, no, no reason
No, no, no, no, no reason

I can never leave
I can never leave

Black Woman: “Come, you spirits that tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here…”

I won’t regret letting you live
Even if you forgot what you never saved me from
So I say whatever or for never
For, for, for, for, for, for never
For, for, for, for, for, for never
For, for, for, for, for, for never
Whatever

The rape of Persephone was choreographed by all the wrong Greeks
The rape of Persephone was a marketing scheme

Rape, rape, rape Persephone
Rape, rape, rape Persephone
Rape, rape, rape Persephone
Rape, rape, rape Persephone

I can never leave
I can never leave

Manson: “The wages of sin is death. Nothing in his life became him like the leaving it.”

I can never leave
I can never leave

No, no, no, no, no, no reason
No, no, no, no, no, no reason
No, no, no, no, no reason
