"As Sick As The Secrets Within" lyrics - MARILYN MANSON

This is no longer just my communion
The worms of the flesh have turned
With all the sacrifices I swallow
And the blood from the cup is so cold

[Interlude:]
You're only as sick as the secrets within
You're only as sick as the secrets within

It's not so evil as much as it's hungry
I see these bodies and the bones picked clean
I built this cage we've been trapped in together
Can't remember where I hid the keys

[Pre-Chorus:]
A reason for me, for me to get by
Became a need, a need to get high
Then into a life that was no life at all
No life at all

[Chorus:]
There is a trick to get out of your skin
You're only as sick as the secrets within
But the beast is calling for us and
Slowly assuming control

[Guitar solo]

[Pre-Chorus:]
A reason for me, for me to get by
Became a need, a need to get high
And into a life that was no life at all
No life at all

[Chorus:]
There is a trick to get out of your skin
You're only as sick as the secrets within
But the beast is calling for us and
Slowly assuming control

[Bridge:]
I was never your taxidermy
I'm sewn into your soul
Keep sleeping, I'll make you dream of me
Keep sleeping, I'll make you dream of me
Keep sleeping

[Chorus:]
There is a trick to get out of your skin
You're only as sick as the secrets within
But the beast is calling for us and
Slowly assuming control

[Outro:]
You're only as sick as the secrets within
You're only as sick as the secrets within
You're only as sick as the secrets within
You're only as sick as the secrets within
You're only as sick as the secrets within
You're only as sick as the secrets within
Keep sleeping, I'll make you dream of me
Keep sleeping, I'll make you dream of me
Keep sleeping, I'll make you dream of me
Keep sleeping
