White Zombie – More Human Than Human Lyrics 16 years ago
not that it really defines the song in anyway, but i do like in the video that a person in a monkey/apew suit is holding the sign that reads "more human than a human"- could definitely take that image pretty far and talk about how the primates can be a much more civil society than us humans with divine rational thinking and such, yet still kill each other every day over meaningless things we have assigned value to.

Marilyn Manson – Wight Spider Lyrics 16 years ago
further, the next line is "and i'll help you move all the bodies"- "and" implies a previous condition, therefore if HE were smothered in a cocoon how would he be able to move the bodies of the past which he would then be a part of? he has to be excluded to be able to take that action upon that condition. i really think it is a typo.

Marilyn Manson – Wight Spider Lyrics 16 years ago

i know that the lyrics are printed in the booklet as "smother the past in a cocoon, or me" but every time i hear it i swear he says "for" and not "or"- and "for" makes so much more sense to me in this song- this whole song is about having power and influence over someone else, so it would only make sense that the person smothers the past in a cocoon FOR HIM, not the past OR him- Manson in this song is the puppet master holding the strings, he can't be in a position where he could be smothered by the person he is controlling. the refrain about possession is a psychological possession of her, the ability to hold power and influence over her. like i said, i know it's printed in the booklet, but when i listen i hear "for". anyone else?
