Music details
In the March 18, 2009 issue of Kerrang!, Marilyn Manson said of the song that "I think a lot of people will hear the track and initially think it's just political, but it's not just that, it's also me describing a lot of fucked-up scenarios that I'm going through in my personal life. Someone asked me, 'Why are you so fucked up?', 'Well, I am from America.' I hate the fact that so many people have fucked the country up, and so many people fucked up my personal life and I allowed it to happen. So in a way, I feel like America as a whole feels, but in no way does that make me a tree-hugging patriotic freedom rocker."
In response to this interview, Rudy Coby, who earlier gave a brief explanation of "Devour", said about the song on his MySpace profile, "I love the song but it doesn't sound like any other song on the album - it was the one I said he played eleventh or twelveth almost as an afterthought. [...] It's one part of a journey - but it isn't giving away the game. I totally understand why Kerrang would want this as their special preview download though - everyone is reevaluating our country right now and this song is "America the (Un)Beautiful" and doesn't take any fucking shit."
