Crushing, cheating, changing
Am I deaf or dead?
Is this constricting construction
Or just streets with rusty signs
Of something violent coming?

This'll hurt you worse than me
I'm weak, seven days, I'm weak
Don't run from me I won't
Bother counting one, two, three

I don't know which me that I love
Got no reflection
I don't know which me that I love
Got no reflection

Show myself how to make a noose
A gun's cliche, and a razor too
I'm not a death share vacation, vacant station
Made of scars and filled with my old wounds

This'll hurt you worse than me
I'm weak, seven days, I'm weak
Don't run from me I won't
Bother counting one, two, three

I don't know which me that I love
Got no reflection
I don't know which me that I love
Got no reflection

You, you don't even want to know what I'm gonna do to you
You don't even want to know what I'm gonna do to you
You don't even want to know what I'm gonna do to you
You don't even want to know what I'm gonna do to you

I don't know which me that I love
Got no reflection
I don't know which me that I love
Got no reflection

No Reflection
No Reflection

I've got no reflection

Marilyn Manson

Brian Hugh Warner (born January 5, 1969), better known by his stage name Marilyn Manson, is an American rock musician and former music journalist known for his controversial stage persona and image as the lead singer of the eponymous band Marilyn Manson. His stage name was formed from juxtaposing the names of two American cultural icons, namely actress Marilyn Monroe and multiple murder convict Charles Manson as a critical and, simultaneously, laudatory appraisal of America and its peculiar culture. The seemingly outrageous visual and vocal styles he employs, his unique interpretations of familiar songs and the controversy surrounding his lyrics and imagery have led to his very pronounced public appeal. more »
