I don't own any rights for the song or any part of it.

"Minute Of Decay" is a song by Marilyn Manson from their breakthrough 1996 album "Antichrist Superstar". One of the songs that drew my attention to bass guitar as an instrument with it's mesmerizing, sneaky, and quietly menacing bassline.

The song starts with the “From a dead man… greetings” sample from the movie adaptation of Orwell’s "Nineteen Eighty-Four".

Manson noted in his autobiography that he began to cry while recording the vocals for this song. No wonder considering the lyrics and excessive drug use during the recording period. A combo like that would make anyone cry.

Lyrics:

From a dead man... greetings

There's not much left to love
Too tired today to hate
I feel the empty
I feel the minute of decay

I'm on my way down now, I'd like to take you with me
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way down now, I'd like to take you with me
I'm on my way down

The minute that it's born
It begins to die
I'd love to just give in
I'd love to live this lie

I've been to black and back
I've whited out my name
A lack of pain, a lack of hope
A lack of anything to say

I'm on my way down now, I'd like to take you with me
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way down

The minute that it's born
It begins to die
I'd love to just give in
I'd love to live this lie
I'd love to live this lie

How do you see it?
How do you know?
How do you see it?
I looked ahead and everything was dead

How do you know?
I guess that I am, too
How do you see it?
I looked ahead and everything was dead

How do you know?
I guess that I am
I guess that I am, too

The minute that it's born
It begins to die
I'd love to just give in
I'd love to live this lie
I'd love to live this lie

I'm on my way down now, I'd like to take you with me
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way down now, I'd like to take you with me
I'm on my way down
