The Tourniquet - Lyrics by Marilyn Manson


Lyrics
she's made of hair and bone and little teethand things I cannot speakshe comes on like a crippled playthingspine is just a string
I wrapped our love in all this foilsilver-tight like spider legs
I never wanted it to ever spoilbut flies will always lay their eggs
Take your hatred out on memake your victim my headyou never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquetprosthetic synthesis with butterflysealed up with virgin stitchif it hurts, just tell mepreserve the innocence
I never wanted it to end this waybut flies will lay their eggs
