If you don't think you're a fan of Marilyn Manson, give this song a try. It's from his most mainstream album, Eat Me, Drink Me, and it's more of a hard rock ballad than anything. Manson may be best known for his industrial metal tracks, but he genre hops between albums, and Eat Me, Drink Me comes off sounding like something from the 70's or 80's at times.

The sky was blonde like her

It was a day to take the child out back and shoot it

I could have buried all my dead up in her cemetary head

She had dirty word witchcraft I was in the deep end of her skin

Then it seemed like a one-car wreck

But I knew it was a horrid tragedy

Ways to make the tiny satisfaction disappear

-

Blow out the candles on all my Frankensteins

At least my death wish will come true

You taste like Valentine's if we cry - you're like a birthday

I should have picked the photograph, it lasted longer than you

-

Putting holes in happiness

We'll paint the future black if it needs a color

My death sentence is now a story

Who'll be digging when you finally let me die?

Romance of our assassination

If you're Bonnie, I'll be your Clyde

But the grass is greener here and I can see all of your snakes

You wear your ruins well please run away with me to hell

-

Blow out the candles on all my Frankensteins

At least my death wish will come true

You taste like Valentine's if we cry - you're like a birthday

I should have picked the photograph, it lasted longer than you

Blow out the candles on all my Frankensteins

At least my death wish will come true

You taste like Valentine's if we cry - you're like a birthday

I should have picked the photograph, it lasted longer than you
