Tourniquet

Marylin Manson

she's made of hair and bone and little teeth


and things I cannot speak


she comes on like a crippled plaything


spine is just a string


I wrapped our love in all this foil


silver-tight like spider legs


I never wanted it to ever spoil


but flies will always lay their eggs


Take your hatred out on me


make your victim my head


you never ever believed in me


I am your tourniquet


prosthetic synthesis with butterfly


sealed up with virgin stitch


if it hurts, just tell me


preserve the innocence


I never wanted it to end this way


but flies will lay their eggs
