BROKEN *** By Marilyn Manson
So close your eyes
It’s only a dream
When you wake up
Rinse off all this pain
In your make up
Stare into the mirror
Apples are always something to fear
Are you alright?
‘Cause I’m not okay
All of these lies
Are not worth fighting for
Are you alright?
‘Cause I’m not okay
All of these lies
Are not worth fighting for
I am a ***
Dig in your grooves
Scratch you up
Then I’ll put you away
I am a ***
Dig in your grooves
Scratch you up
Then I’ll put you away
It won’t be death
But a deep sleep
A curse of a hundred years
The princess will fall (The princess will fall)
The princess will fall
The princess will fall
Into a slumber for a century
Are you alright?
‘Cause I’m not okay
All of these lies
Are not worth fighting for
Are you alright?
‘Cause I’m not okay
All of these lies
Are not worth fighting for
(Not worth fighting for
Fighting for, fighting for)
I am a ***
Dig in your grooves
Scratch you up
Then I put you away
I am a ***
Dig in your grooves
Scratch you up
Then I put you away
I’ll never ever play you again
I’ll never ever play you again
I’ll never ever play you again (Then I put you away)
I’ll never ever play you again (Then I put you away)
I’ll never ever play you again (Then I put you away)
I’ll never ever play you again (Then I put you away)
I’ll never ever play you again (Then I put you away)
I’ll never ever play you again (Then I put you away)
Then I put you away
Then I put you away
I’ll never ever play you again
Manson said of the new album “WE ARE CHAOS” in a press release:
This concept album is the mirror Shooter and I built for the listener—it’s the one we won’t stare into. There are so many rooms, closets, safes and drawers. But in the soul or your museum of memories, the worst are always the mirrors. Shards and slivers of ghosts haunted my hands when I wrote most of these lyrics.
