[Verse 1]
And I could look into the crowded morgue of mistakes
The sun stopped its smile and frowned on me too
My re-built/re-mastered heart is smashed into its faces
And its face is confused

I cut my throat in two, I said "sorry" to you
For being a fool, but I didn't want forgiveness
It was regret, not an apology
It was regret, regret, regret

[Chorus]
Dis, dis, dis, disengaged
Dis, dis, dis, disengaged
You're with me, against me
But the only thing, forever, is hate

[Verse 2]
I forget what I saw before and after that day
I'd trade all I was worth to make myself into
The handsomest gun and put the diamond bullet
Into your "404 ERROR" face

[Chorus]
Dis, dis, dis, disengaged
Dis, dis, dis, disengaged
You're with me, against me
But the only thing, forever, is hate

[Bridge]
And I'm an event
That everybody knows
You decide if you can live
Or you decide to let someone decide for you

[Chorus]
Dis, dis, dis, disengaged
Dis, dis, dis, disengaged
You're with me, against me
But the only thing, forever, is hate

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
