Coma Black: Eden Eye/the Apple Of Discord

It didn't know what love was on that day
My heart's a tiny blood clot, I picked at it
It never heals it never goes away
I burned all the good things in the eden eye
We were too dumb to run too dead to die
I burned all the good things in the eden eye
We were too dumb to run too dead to die
This was never my world
You took the angel away
I'd kill myself to make everybody pay
This was never my world
You took the angel away
I'd kill myself to make everybody pay
I would have told her then, she was the only thing
That I could love in this dying world
But the simple word of love itself
Already died and went away
This was never my world
You took the angel away
I'd kill myself to make everybody pay
This was never my world
You took the angel away
I'd kill myself to make everybody pay
I burned all the good things in the eden ye
We were too dumb to run too dead to die
I burned all the good things in the eden eye
We were too dumb to run too dead to die
This was never my world
You took the angel away
I'd kill myself to make everybody pay
This was never my world
You took the angel away
I'd kill myself to make everybody pay
This was never my world
You took the angel away
I'd kill myself to make everybody pay
This was never my world
You took the angel away
I'd kill myself to make everybody pay
Her heart's a bloodstained egg
We didn't handle with care
It's broken and bleeding
And we can never repair
Her heart's a bloodstained egg
We didn't handle with care
It's broken and bleeding
And we can never repair
And we can never repair
Coma Black: Eden Eye/the Apple Of Discord
Marilyn Manson's 'Coma Black' serves as a haunting centerpiece on the album Eden Eye, blending industrial metal with gothic rock to explore themes of psychological fragmentation and societal decay. The track exemplifies the artist's signature approach to theatrical performance and sonic aggression, utilizing distorted guitars and rhythmic intensity to create an immersive auditory experience. Released during a pivotal era in his discography, the song reflects the darker, more introspective tone that characterized his work following the success of Mechanical Animals. It stands as a testament to his ability to fuse punk energy with orchestral elements, cementing his status as a provocative figure in alternative music. The recording captures the raw emotional volatility often found in his catalog, offering a stark contrast to his earlier pop-punk anthems while maintaining the rebellious spirit that defined his career.
