* The lyric "creator, preserver, destroyer" references three ''I Ching'' trigrams. Respectively these are ''quán'' (☰), "the creative," ''kūn'' (☷), "the receptive" and ''zhèn'' (☳), "the arousing." ''Born Villain'' conceputalizes the archetypical villain, whom has the chance to change; with this line [[Marilyn Manson]] assumes the role of the destroyer in order to make the change. Creation, preservation and destruction are also the three forms in the Hindu concept of Trimurti.<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trimurti Trimurti].
