Marilyn MansonI am not as self-abusive in the manner of walking off stage bleeding.

Marilyn MansonI fear being like everyone I hate, I fear failure, I fear losing control. I love balancing between chaos and control with everything I do. I always have a fear of going one way or another, getting lost in something, or losing everything to get lost in. And I fear being a completely acceptable sheep in society.
