Brides of Destruction were an American hard rock supergroup from Los Angeles, California, formed in 2002. The band's last lineup consisted of singer London LeGrand (vocals), Tracii Guns (lead guitar) and Scot Coogan (drums, percussion). Previous members of the band were Nikki Sixx (bass), Kris Kohls (drums), Adam Hamilton (keyboard), John Corabi (rhythm guitar), Scott Sorry (bass) and Ginger (rhythm guitar).
Nikki Sixx formed Brides of Destruction with L.A. Guns guitarist Tracii Guns, initially with the name Cockstar, after Mötley Crüe went on hiatus in 2001. Added to the lineup were Adema drummer Kris Kohls, L.A. Guns bassist Adam Hamilton, who played keyboard in the band, and singer London LeGrand. Hamilton was soon replaced by former Mötley Crüe singer and guitarist John Corabi while Guns left L.A. Guns to focus on the band. They briefly adopted the moniker Motordog before settling on Brides of Destruction before recording demos. By 2003, both Corabi and Kohls departed the band, with former Annetenna and Ednaswap Scot Coogan replacing Kohls.

You, father, you ever wonder
Found out what you are
Wishing on a star
Or if my dealt card
Has numbed the pain you laid
I got a gun
And nothing to say
I'm on the run
And now it's time to pay
You, father, you ever dare
Question words of blame
Hen of guilt and shame
Or this world I've drained
Flushing hopes of today
I got a gun
And nothing to say
I'm on the run
Blow yourself away
I gotta gun
And nothing to say
I'm on the run
And nothing to say
I got a gun
And nothing to say
I'm on the run
Blow yourself away

Strung out electric sippin' antiseptic
Drop you like a hand grenade
Murder city Devil never on the level
Kill you with my serenade

There you are, the superstar
Caged and bound don't they look smashing
With all your camera punk ass flashing
There you are it's so bizarre
Broken down the captains shattered
Sunken ship but it don't matter
I've packed the bags under my eyes
And now I'm fine
Let me be your one and only cock star
Three five seven with my goddamn on star
Natural born killer, natural born killer
Living like a jack with my one eye open
Lost generation and were anti posing
Natural born killer, natural born killer
So there it is it's who we are
Black and blue prints for disaster
Guaranteed to kill you faster
Emperors it's time for war
Lost angels of your deconstruction
Bone out cause the cocks in motion
I got strychnine on my tongue and
I'm feeling F I N E fine
Let me be your one and only cock star
Three Five Seven with my goddamn on star
Natural born killer, natural born killer
Living like a jack with my one eye open
Lost generation and were anti posing
Natural born killer, natural born killer

I'll prey on you when you're weak
Natural born killer

[Incomprehensible]
Fuck
I can see you smile on my TV
A spewing bile necessary
Dementia of your deception
"I don't wanna be the tolerant"
"I don't wanna be the consequence"
"I don't wanna be the president"
Doesn't really matter what I say
Nobody listens to us anyway
Doesn't really matter what I do
I'm so sick of you
Shut the fuck up
A pathetic talkin' head
You, product of our walking dead
You, war machined evangelistic mission
"I don't wanna be the tolerant"
"I don't wanna be the consequence"
"I don't wanna be the president"
Doesn't really matter what I say
Nobody listens to us anyway
Doesn't really matter what I do
I'm so sick of you
Shut the fuck up, shut the fuck up
Doesn't really matter what I say
Nobody listens to us anyway
Doesn't really matter what I do
Doesn't really matter what I say
Doesn't really matter what I do
I'm so sick of, I'm so sick of
I'm so sick of you
I remember our first goodbye
And the kiss in the doorway as you cried
To let you go it breaks my heart
You walked away
'Cause you'll only get so far
You'll only get so far
'Cause you'll only get so far, without love
If you're lonely today
Well you're not far away
'Cause you'll only get so far
I remember out next goodbye
And you cried and promised me your life
Loss of faith in those starry eyes
You walked away
'Cause you'll only get so far
You'll only get so far
'Cause you'll only get so far without love
If you're lonely today
Well you're not far away
'Cause you'll only get so far
I'm tryin' to remember
Why I ever left at all
Need you to remind me
'Cause you know where I belong
When these miles are too long
I can't wait to come home
I need you in my arms
'Cause you'll only get so far
When these miles are too long
I can't wait to come home
I need you in my arms
'Cause you'll only get so far, only get so far
'Cause you'll only get so far
'Cause you'll only get so far
'Cause you'll only get so far without love
If you're lonely today
But you're not far away
'Cause you'll only get so far
'Cause you'll only get so far
You'll only get so far
'Cause you'll only get so far without love
If you're lonely today
Well you're not far away
'Cause you'll only get so far
It seems so hard to stay so positive
I know how it feels
It just takes time, something's gotta give
Don't let the negative
Steal the blue out of the sky
Don't leave it all behind
This is life, this is it
It's not everything you want
It's everything you get, believe it
It's not worth leaving
Yeah, this is life once again
It's been knockin' at your door
You ought to let it in, don't waste it
It's time you faced it
It seems like years
Since you've known happiness
So down so long
So calm your fears
And you'll get out of it
Just hang on
So this is life, this is it
It's not everything you want
It's everything you get, believe it
It's not worth leaving
Yeah, this is life once again
It's been knockin' at your door
You ought to let it in, don't waste it
It's time you faced it
Why do you cry? Why do you cry?
Steal the blue out of the sky
Don't leave it all behind, yeah
This is life once again
It's been knockin' at your door, don't waste it
It's time you faced it
This is life, this is it
It's not everything you want
It's everything you get, believe it
It's not worth leaving
Yeah, this is life once again
It's been knockin' at your door
You ought to let it in, don't waste it
It's time you faced it
This is life
This is life, ooh yeah
Don't let it pass you by, pass you by, yeah
It's time you faced it
It's time to turn around
verse:
Mother I'm not what you say
You can't seem to believe this is still true
Father so I made you frey
You seem to forget I'm just like you
Can't you see that I am just like you
chorus:
I'm not an animal
not a criminal
diabalical, cynical, mimical I'm still me
I'm not an animal
not a criminal
diabalical, cynical, mimical I'm still me
verse:
Hollow I am safe
Can't you seem to see that this is you
Tomorrow if you let it be
You might remember times when skys were blue
Might remember times when skys were blue
chorus:
I'm not an animal
not a criminal
diabalical, cynical, mimical I'm still me
I'm not an animal
not a criminal
diabalical, cynical, mimical I'm still me
You want love
You fake love
You take it for granted
It slips through your fingers
You're frightened and scared of
Commitment, resentment
Be honest, it's alright
It's right here for your eyes
It goes fast, shoots right past
The years fly, pass you by
So grab it and shake it
Don't be scared to break it
Breathe, don't hold your breath
You might be next so brace yourself
Lived for today, it's on it's way
So brace yourself
Now reach down inside you
Be quiet with your truth
Have you lived through
Your demons inside you?
Remember how you feel
It's fragile, it's so real
You feel high, you feel low
You don't know when you'll go
Breathe, don't hold your breath
You might be next so brace yourself
Lived for today, it's on it's way
So brace yourself
So brace yourself
There's no one else
Brace yourself
There's no one else
Breathe, don't hold your breath
You might be next so brace yourself
Lived for today, it's on it's way
So brace yourself
Lived for today, it's on it's way
So brace yourself
So brace yourself
There's no one else
Lived for today, it's on it's way
Well, I can feel compassion
I can feel your pain
I can see you slippin' down the drain
It's so insane right before you crack
Such an evil curse infected head
And the voices say you'll end up dead
Like Nostradamus right before you crack
Yea, if you're goin' out
Next time around
You'll be six feet down if you're goin' out
If you're goin' out
Next time around
You'll be six feet down if you're goin' out
I can see your monster makes you shake and tweeze
Crawling on your back watch your sanity freeze
Right before you die, right before you crack
Keep this a secret, don't tell a soul
Your losing grip of self control
Maybe pray to God right before you crack
Yea, if you're goin' out
Next time around
You'll be six feet down if you're goin' out
If you're goin' out
Next time around
You'll be six feet down if you're goin' out
I can see your monster
He can see you shake
I can see your monster
Wait for you to break
It's not a secret
Words on the street
Pray for Mother Mary for my soul to keep
Pray to your God
Pray to your demons
Have I not bowed?
Have I not bowed?
If you're goin' out
Next time around
You'll be six feet down if you're goin' out
If you're goin' out
Next time around
You'll be six feet down if you're goin' out
If you're goin' out
Next time around
