[Verse 1]
I kill myself in small amounts
In each relationship, it's not about love
Just another funeral
And just another girl left in tears

[Chorus]
And I'm waiting
With the sound turned off, I'm waiting
Like a glass balloon, I'm fading
Into the void and then I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

[Refrain]
They said that Hell's not hot
They said that Hell's not hot

[Verse 2]
I gave my soul to someone else
She must have known that it was already sold
But it was never about her
It was about the hurt

[Chorus]
So, I'm waiting
With the sound turned off, I'm waiting
Like a glass balloon, I'm fading
Into the void and then I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
I kill myself in small amounts
In each relationship, it's not about love
Just another funeral
And just another girl left in tears

[Chorus]
Waiting
With the sound turned off, I'm waiting
Like a glass balloon, I'm fading
Into the void and then I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

I'm waiting
Waiting
I'm fading
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

[Refrain]
They said that Hell's not hot
They said that Hell's not hot
They said that Hell's not hot
They said that Hell's not hot

Brian Hugh Warner who is better known under his stage name of Marilyn Manson is a musician, painter, actor, multimedia artist, and former music journalist. His stage name is a combination of the names of two American icons, actress Marilyn Monroe and multiple murder conspiracy convict Charles Manson.

I picked that (Marilyn Manson) as the fakest stage name of all to say that this is what show business is, fake. Marilyn Monroe wasn’t even her real name, Charles Manson isn’t his real name, and now, I’m taking that to be my real name. But what’s real? You can’t find the truth, you just pick the lie you like the best. As long as you know everything’s a lie, you can’t hurt yourself.

—Marylin Manson
