Marilyn Manson - One Assassination Under God Lyrics

Marilyn Manson - One Assassination Under God Lyrics

You gave us what we wished for

A few tangled strings attached

Pull back the curtain

I won't suffer for your amusement

There's no more dreams for me to sell

I choose my nightmares wisely

I don't want to ruin the story

But it doesn't turn out well

You will always be entertained

Everybody showed up for the execution

But nobody would show their face

To shoot you in the back of the head

And call it "sacrifice"

They don't deserve to even say your name

Put me inside the animal

Stitch it up and shove us off a cliff

When they tear the wings from all the swine

Just monkeys will be left to fly

The pilot light has flickered out

And all the ashes will be screaming

No one can hear my last words

And no encore once we say goodbye

You will always be entertained

You will always be entertained

Everybody showed up for the execution

But nobody would show their face

To shoot you in the back of the head

And call it "sacrifice"

They don't deserve to even say your name

Assassination

Assassination

Assassination

Assassination

Everybody showed up for the execution

But nobody would show their face

To shoot you in the back of the head

And call it "sacrifice"

They don't deserve to even say your name

Sacrifice

Not a sacrifice

Not a sacrifice

Not a sacrifice
