[Verse 1]
Stood in the face of the grim death
Screaming monsters bring me to deafness
My dagger and swagger are useless in the face of the mirror
When the mirror is made of my face

[Chorus]
This is the house of death
Where even angels die in arms of demons
This is the house of death
Where even angels die in arms of demons

[Verse 2]
Hide your heart in your gut, but for what?
When they're waiting to pull you apart
Like a scarecrow on death row
So now, all of your secrets are shown

[Chorus]
This is the house of death
Where even angels die in arms of demons
This is the house of death
Where even angels die in arms of demons

[Refrain]
No one is exempt from the odds of even

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
