[Verse 1]
Through early morning fog, I see
Visions of the things to be
The pains that are withheld for me
I realize and I can see

[Chorus]
That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it, if I please

[Verse 2]
The game of life is hard to play
I'm gonna lose it, anyway
The losing card, I'll someday lay
So this is all I have to say

[Chorus]
Suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it, if I please

[Verse 3]
The sword of time will pierce our skin
It doesn't hurt when it begins
But as it works its way on in
The pain grows stronger, watch it grin

[Chorus]
And suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it, if I please

[Verse 4]
A brave man once requested me
To answer questions that are key
"Is it to be, or not to be?"
And I replied, "Why ask me?"

[Chorus]
But suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it, if I please
And you can do the same thing, if you please

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
