"'''Breaking the Same Old Ground'''" is the thirteenth track on the 2012 release ''[[Born Villain]]''. The title of the song was revealed in the March 2012 issue of ''Revolver'' magazine.<ref name="Revolver Magazine'">[[2010-2013 Born Villain imagery#Revolver Magazine - March 2012 Manson Reveals New Song Titles In ''Revolver'']], March. 2011, ''Revolver Magazine''.</ref> The song mentions how Manson feels he keeps coming back to familiar ground, performing the same show and doing the same things over and over again and that it's too late to change it. Like many of the songs on Born Villain, the ending becomes triumphant, with Manson declaring that nothing except death itself owns him, and he welcomes that nothingness.
