Marilyn Manson - Sacrifice Of The Mass Lyrics

Marilyn Manson - Sacrifice Of The Mass Lyrics 

They started the last rites

The earth has opened wide

I can hear my mother's voice

Time for me to say goodbye

I never learned how to love

Those drugs weren't meant for healing

I just gave for the sake of taking

Now God will swallow me

Now I hear the children chanting

And the widows want to eat

I think they've helped themselves

Enough of my bad dreams

Lay your head against my heart

Can you feel me fading?

The first burial that I've been to

Tell the abyss to stop staring at me

The greater the star

The more violent it is, the more violent it is

Maybe it was forced attrition

When you pray you cannot lie

The greater the star

The more violent it is, the more violent it is

Maybe it was forced attrition

When you pray you cannot lie

When we lifted the stone

We should have known

We'd be bitten by the snake below

When we lifted the stone

We should have known

We'd be bitten by the snake below

When we lifted the stone

We should have known

We'd be bitten by the snake below

When we lifted the stone

We should have known

We'd be bitten by the snake below

The greater the star

The more violent it is, the more violent it is

Maybe it was forced attrition

When you pray you cannot lie

The greater the star

The more violent it is, the more violent it is

Maybe it was forced attrition

When you pray you cannot lie

Mother can't mourn me

Father won't win my fights

I'm dressed in my mortuary best

I'm ready for my ride

The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb

They're waiting with open arms for me to join them soon
