[Verse 1]
Nothing suffocates you more than
The passing of everyday human events
And isolation is the oxygen mask
You make your children breathe in to survive

[Chorus]
But I'm not a slave to a God that doesn't exist
And I'm not a slave to a world that doesn't give a shit
And when we were good you just closed your eyes
So when we are bad we'll scar your minds

[Post-Chorus]
Fight, fight, fight, fight
Fight, fight, fight, fight

[Verse 2]
You'll never grow up to be a big rock star
Celebrated victim of your fame
They'll just cut our wrists like cheap coupons
And say that death was on sale today

[Chorus]
And when we were good you just closed your eyes
So when we are bad we'll scar your minds
But I'm not a slave to a God that doesn't exist
And I'm not a slave to a world that doesn't give a shit

[Bridge]
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of millions' just a statistic

[Chorus]
But I'm not a slave to a God that doesn't exist
And I'm not a slave to a world that doesn't give a shit
But I'm not a slave to a God that doesn't exist
And I'm not a slave to a world that doesn't give a shit

[Post-Chorus]
Fight, fight, fight, fight
Fight, fight, fight, fight

Marilyn Manson

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
