[Verse 1]
The fruit is speechless before our sorceries
The party has just begun
Timelapse and dancing and rotting in place
And we've reached the high end of low

High end of low
High end of low

[Chorus]
You can take me, the grave can take me
The earth is waiting to eat us alive
I love you damaged, I need human wreckage
I have to look up just to see Hell

[Post-Chorus]
Fallen, fallen, fallen from grace
Now for you, this is why you should run
Fallen, fallen, fallen from grace
Now for you, this is why you should run

[Verse 2]
The core of a woman is where her body
Chooses to revolve like a corpse
Centrifugal, melted under the skin
Bacteria, into the napalm heart, I explode

I explode
I explode

[Chorus]
You can take me, the grave can take me
The earth is waiting to eat us alive
I love you damaged, I need human wreckage
I have to look up just to see Hell

[Post-Chorus]
Fallen, fallen, fallen from grace
Now for you, this is why you should run
Fallen, fallen, fallen from grace
Now for you, this is why you should run

[Bridge]
The light shines in the darkness
And the darkness will never understand it
The light shines in the darkness
And the darkness will never understand it
The light shines in the darkness
And the darkness will never understand it
The light shines in the darkness
And the darkness will never understand it

[Chorus]
You can take me, the grave can take me
The earth is waiting to eat us alive
I love you damaged, I need human wreckage
I have to look up just to see Hell
You can take me, the grave can take me
The earth is waiting to eat us alive
I love you damaged, I need human wreckage
I have to look up just to see Hell

[Outro]
High end of low
High end of low

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
