Marilyn Manson – The Flowers of Evil Lyrics 13 years ago
"The day they covered us in the dirt
like stars in the ground
that will grow into dead flowers"

started famous, but was masked with all of this hate and controversy. it will only ead to him being even more popular

"I’ve been running
from the bloodless
for fear of exile
for all of my sorceries
that shun the light"

i try to avoid these things that want to convict me or condemn me for going against their views

Marilyn Manson – Children of Cain Lyrics 13 years ago
Sacrifice won’t suffice
resurrection needs your death
to happen twice (perhaps he speaks of how jesus is supposed to come again, twice)
fall on my heart
and burn and forge
your tortured black-smitten
into the sharpest, fucking sword (the dark destruction of him? make it a weapon)


don’t assume that I’m always with you
It’s just where my mortal body happens to be (I dont like being here any more than you do,no choice)
No Sineater to slay (no bad man to kill)
Us Children of Cain (people like me are the "bad men")

Watching monkey suicide, (monkey is a reference to stupid people)
Sunday AIDS and church wine wash it away (cal themselves christian and what ever they do wont matter)


So take your little black book (bible)
I see the way that you look in to it
I’ll eat it and I’ll cut my tongue
And all the pages you spread,
Sweet as honey you said (sounds good to you)
But I’m choking on your bitter stories (sounds bad to me)


i think the song as a whole is in reference to people are looked down on for not being religious, but to him religion is the bad in society. theres no bad people here (no sineater to say) we dont have a choice who we share this world with. and Cain is a reference to the murdering brother, who we "are all children of"

Marilyn Manson – Born Villain [Album Version] Lyrics 13 years ago
"I could give you a dozen fresh cut, pink or red or white
I wonder if they knew what they would grow to become"

could start out as a good thing but in the end we dont know what to expect. if he were to give the flowers we could assume he "is" the flowers


You'll have to cut it down and burn me into splinters (what he became)
Or I'll unwrap the string that was me from your finger(you control me)
And I'll hang you in your bedroom burial ground (one of us needs to end this)


"There is a taste for blood and it's something deep inside
There is a taste for blood and it's deep inside"

everyone has some sort of evil nature, its blood deep

"I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim"

everyones guilty of being human

Marilyn Manson – Murderers Are Getting Prettier Every Day Lyrics 13 years ago
"I hear the horrid voices
of someone else’s angels"

what you find good, i find bad


"I broken open the box
when I spoke the spell
and I became
an entrance wound
to your bedroom grave,
and I was paid
with the shadow of consensual rape
Your ransom note
is quoted by,
your death and
birth certificates
and all of your love,
and all of your love letters
read just like my will"

he said something, or something was said that started some sort of conflict/ he goes back and forth making references to one thing is another. he talks about how everything is relative to the person and some peoples views will be destroyed along the way
