Marilyn Manson

Brian Hugh Warner (born January 5, 1969), better known by his stage name Marilyn Manson, is an American rock musician and former music journalist known for his controversial stage persona and image as the lead singer of the eponymous band Marilyn Manson. His stage name was formed from juxtaposing the names of two American cultural icons, namely actress Marilyn Monroe and multiple murder convict Charles Manson as a critical and, simultaneously, laudatory appraisal of America and its peculiar culture. The seemingly outrageous visual and vocal styles he employs, his unique interpretations of familiar songs and the controversy surrounding his lyrics and imagery have led to his very pronounced public appeal. more »

I got a gun in my hand and 
I feel like a man 
I'm the pope of my generation 
I got to push myself 
Over your goddamn walls 
I don't listen to your condemnation 

Can't you see the 
Is the only cause of everything 
That you wish to stop 
And bring to an end 
But it only makes me hate you more 

Careful what you wish for 
It can only bring you down 
keep your spirit on the ground 
Emptiness the only sound 

I know what it takes to break you down 
And I'll kill everything that made you 
(I know what it takes to break you down) 

Take everything you tried to teach me 
It don't add up to a pile of shit 
All the methods you use 
As you tried to reach me 
They don't matter a single bit 

I'm alright inside 
I'm just trying to hide 
From all the propaganda 
You want to choke me with 

keep your face away 
keep your hands away 
Don't want your fingers 
In and out of my life 

I know what it takes to break you down 
(I know what it takes to break you down) 
And I'll kill everything that made you 
(I know what it takes to break you down) 
I know what it takes to break you down 
And I'll kill everything that made you
