The Speed Of Pain

Marilyn Manson


They slit our throats

Like we were flowers

And our milk has been

Devoured


When you want it

Goes away too fast

When you hate it

It always seems to last

But just remember when you think

You're free

The crack inside your fucking heart is me


(Thought not spoken)

I wanna outrace the speed of pain for another day


I wish I could sleep

But I can't lay on my back

Because there's a knife

For everyday that I've known you


When you want it

Goes away too fast

When you hate it

It always seems to last

But just remember when you think

You're free

The crack inside your fucking heart is me


(Thought not spoken)

I wanna outrace the speed of pain for another day


Lie to me, cry to me, give to me

I would

Lie with me, die with me, give to me

I would

Keep all your secrets wrapped in dead hair

I hopw at least we die holding hands

For always


Album: Mechanical Animals (1998)
