Marilyn Manson and Tim Skold - The Red Carpet Grave

They call her bulldozer speech demon
Without distractions of hope she makes
The depression business look surprisingly novel
And she's not just royal, allegedly loyal
Kind of faithful, but she has no faith in me
Inhale the damage smoothly; Paradise isn't lost, it was hiding all along

[Chorus:]
There's the ones that you love
The ones that love you
The ones that make you cum
The ones that make you come unglued, yeah

I can't turn my back on you when you're walking away
Bottomless celebrity scar, staged circuses for schoolgirls
Boys are all dressed up like a mediocre suicide omen
Here comes the red carpet grave again, and again, and again, oh man

[Chorus]

I can't turn my back on you when you're walking away
I can't turn my back on you when you're walking away
Can't turn my back on you when you're walking away

[Chorus x 2]

It's easy to beat the system
Had a hard time beating the symptoms
Had a hard time beating the symptoms

I can't turn my back on you, can't turn my back on you
I can't turn my back on you when you're walking away
Here comes the red carpet grave again, and again, and again
Here comes the red carpet grave again, and again, and again, oh man
