The Reflecting God

Marilyn Manson

Your world is an ashtray

We burn and coil like cigarettes

The more you cry your ashes turn to mud

It's the nature of the leeches the virgin's

Feeling cheated

You've only spent a second of your life

My world is unaffected there is an exit here

I say it is and then it's true

There is a dream inside a dream

I'm wide awake the more I sleep

You'll understand when I'm dead

I went to god just to see, and I was looking at me

Saw heaven and hell were lies

When I'm god everybody dies

Scar/can you feel my power?

Shoot here and the world gets smaller

Scar/scar/can you feel my power?

One shot and the world gets smaller

Let's jump upon the sharp swords

And cut away our smiles

Without the threat of death

There's no reason to live at all

My world is unaffected, there is an exit here

I say it is and then it's true,

There is a dream inside a dream,

I'm wide awake the more I sleep

You'll understand when I'm dead

(bridge)

(chorus)

"each thing I show you is a piece of my death"

Shoot shoot shoot motherfucker

No salvation, no forgiveness

"this is beyond your experience"

Forgiveness
