Music details[edit]
The song begins with some haunting chimes and piano. A tribal drum beat soon kicks in and Manson begins to sing. Yet another Skold guitar solo is one of the high point of this dark track. The instrumental version featured on the promotional disc Bonus Track and Instrumentals from the Album "Eat Me, Drink Me" includes a section completely absent from the album version of the song, which extends the track's length by a minute.

Lyrics[edit]
You have eyes that
lead me on
and a body that
shows me death
your lips look like they were made
for something else but
they just suck my breath
I want your pain
to taste why you're ashamed
and I know you're not just what you say to me
and I'm not the only moment you're made of
You're so sudden and sweet
All legs, knuckle, knees
Head's blown clean off
your mouth's paid off
Fuck me 'til we know it's unsafe
and we'll paint
over the evidence
I want you wanting me
I want what I see in your eyes
so give me something to be scared of
don't give me something to satisfy
You're so sudden and sweet
all legs, knuckle, knees
Head's blown clean off
your mouth's paid off
Fuck me 'til we know it's unsafe
and we'll paint
over the evidence
I want your pain
to taste why you're ashamed
And I know you're not just what you say to me
And I'm not the only moment you're made of
You're so sudden and sweet
legs, knuckle, knees
Head's blown clean off
your mouth's paid off
Fuck me 'til we know it's unsafe
and we'll paint
over the evidence
