Marilyn Manson - Speed Of Pain

Album : Mechanical Animals

[Peakmidwesting]

I wonder if he fully understands how many lives he's saved with his music. How many kids found comfort and acceptance in his lyrics.

[dimitrioskultukis]

Mr. Brian Warner is one of the greatest writers, authors, poet and rock stars of this century. God bless this man. He made people feel less Alone and bonded with troubled youth through his music.

[edwardhamilton]

It saddens me to see so many people who look at Manson for the imagery and not the art. This guys a fucking poet.

[delgrady]

Its amazing that nowadays every other person is preaching about mental health yet Manson has been talking about mental health, addiction, depression from the 90s and back then you know when you listened to these records you knew you wernt alone.

[bobbykillian]

Marilyn Manson is more than just a poet, he is a lyrical genius a highly educated person and beyond talented, a true artist in many forms, the definition of a musician at it's best.

Hard to not listen to Disassociative and Speed Of Pain together! They are hand-in-glove tracks!

[jennifermoughler]

Speed of pain and coma white have quite literally gotten me thru some very dark periods in my life…hell most of his music has…he’s a fucking music genius ❤Manson

[silvertye]

Listened to this man since I was a little girl, his music got me through the hardest times in my life! Pure genius

[oliverhughes]

This entire album in my opinion is an absolute master piece that goes beyond just music, the whole album draws me in so deep every time I listen to it with so many emotions and memories, I love it.

[Karolcia]

This song is almost too much beauty to handle...

[sylc]

Winter 1998: red hair...blue face... long black leather coat... black hat... hands hanging in the air as snow was falling from the black sky... ''hope that we die holding hands... always''. Lifetime memories that remain so precious!

[taldofrances]

The best cd of rock history ever produced !

[ambycakes]

this song is even heavier now that I've grown up and had more life experiences listening to it again.

[damianphillips]

I suffer chronic untreated pain and this song gets me through the day...

[stuartsmith]

i reserve judgement on the man until all facts come in from all sides. I will always love Marilyn Manson's music and respect him as an artist no matter what

[stephanierobinette]

This is one more masterpiece. Omg. What a most beautiful song .

[nordicwolf]

whenever i am depressed, this song is exactly how my life feels, i cry to this song because i am a former junkie, and because it is oddly enough, a release for me.

"Just remember, when you think you're free, the crack inside your fuckin heart is me..."

[eraykahraman]

Lyrics;

[Verse 1]
They slit our throats
Like we were flowers
And our milk has been
Devoured

[Pre-Chorus]
When you want it, it goes away too fast
Times you hate it, it always seems to last
Just remember, when you think you're free
The crack inside your fucking heart is me

[Chorus: Thought, Not Spoken]
I wanna outrace the speed of pain
For another day
I wanna outrace the speed of pain
For another day

[Verse 2]
I wish I could sleep
But I can't lay on my back
Because there's a knife
For everyday that I've known you

[Pre-Chorus]
When you want it, it goes away too fast
Times you hate it, it always seems to last
Just remember, when you think you're free
The crack inside your fucking heart is me

[Chorus: Thought, Not Spoken]
I wanna outrace the speed of pain
For another day
I wanna outrace the speed of pain
For another day

[Bridge]
Lie to me, cry to me, give to me, I would
Lie with me, die with me, give to me, I would
Keep all your secrets wrapped in dead hair, for always
Keep all your secrets wrapped in dead hair, for always

Lie to me, cry to me, give to me, I would
Lie with me, die with me, give to me, I would
I hope that we die holding hands, for always
I hope that we die holding hands, for always
I hope that we die holding hands

[misterjoe]

Manson always helps me, no matter how many time has passed. His songs (from mechanical animals and antichrist specially) are my personal treasure, I wouldn't have been alive today without that music..
