Marilyn Manson – If I Was Your Vampire Lyrics 18 years ago
"6 a.m. Christmas morning"

Is when Manson recieved the divorce papers from Dita.

"Beyond the pale everything is black, no turning back."
"If I was your vampire, certain as the moon
instead of killing time, we'll have each other until the sun."

Beyond the moon is infinite space & blackness. There are so many other places to be & people to meet, but he'd rather face certain death with Evan(his girlfriend Evan Rachel Wood) than be encompased by nothingness.

Marilyn Manson – The Reflecting God Lyrics 18 years ago
Most everything has been said, but I will add that the line

"you'll understand when I'm dead"

could easily be connected to the old saying that 'most artists aren't fully appreciated until they're dead' and admirers take a closer look at the way he lived(before & after the song was published) and how he died. Since he is still alive we can only look closer at his life and his work. With that said the song "Minute of Decay" is also on ACSS, including the line "this is my most vulnerable moment" or a mental establishment that 'he is already dead' which has been mentioned a few times, but I thought it should be looked into further.

Wumpscut – Wreath Of Barbs Lyrics 18 years ago
"and i bleed and bleed in this wreath of barbs"

As you probably already know the crown of thorns Jesus worn upon his cruxifiction.

"and i run and run but i don't get far"

Just as a scapegoat's only release is death with a fear of death, that funeralmoon mentioned.
@Kitsune: Straight forward indeed.
