[Verse 1]
I'll swallow up all of you
Like a big bottle of big, big pills
You're the one that I should never take
But I can't sleep until I devour you
I can't sleep until I devour you

You're a flower that's withering
I can't feel your thorns in my hand
This is no embrace, your buried deep
And you're not crying, this is blood all over me
You're not crying, this is blood all over me
You're not crying, this is blood all over me

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll love you, if you let me
And I'll love you, if you won't make me stop

[Verse 2]
I used to hold your haunted neck
I know I'll miss you, if I close my eyes
But this is loaded if I open them
I'll see you and I'll blow your heart to pieces
I will blow your heart to pieces
I will blow your heart to pieces
I will blow your heart to pieces

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll love you, if you let me
And I'll love you, if you won't make me stop

[Chorus]
My pain is not ashamed to repeat itself
My pain is not ashamed to repeat itself
My pain is not ashamed to repeat itself
My pain is not ashamed to repeat itself

I can't sleep until I devour you
I can't sleep until I devour you
I can't sleep until I devour you
I can't sleep until I devour you

[Outro]
And I'll love you, if you let me
And I'll love you, if you won't make me stop...

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
