Autopsy
Marilyn Manson · Other Songs - Marilyn Manson
Dear God, can you climb off that tree made in the shape of a T
Dear God, the paper says you were the king in the black limosine
Dear Jon and all the kings men, couldn't put your head together again
Dear God, the sky's as blue as a gunshot wound
Dear God, if you were alive you know we'd kill you
Before the bullets
Before the flies
Before authourities take out my eyes
The only smiling are your dolls that are made
But you are plastic and so are your brains

While the specific album placement may vary in public records, the composition remains a testament to his enduring influence on alternative music. It invites audiences to engage with the raw emotion and stylistic innovation that characterize his artistic vision, solidifying his status as a provocative force in modern rock.
