The [http://youtube.com/watch?v=VEYY-Wl_VMk video] for "Tourniquet" features an array of grotesque imagery within a dark and surreal environment. It is mostly concentrated around an odd humanoid, suggested by the lyrics to be a creation of Manson's, propped up on wheels to move. He tends to his creation with the assistance of another child-like creature throughout the video. | The [http://youtube.com/watch?v=VEYY-Wl_VMk video] for "Tourniquet" features an array of grotesque imagery within a dark and surreal environment.
