I Want to Kill You Like They Do in the Movies

This song seems more fitting towards the women that he's been linked to whom are actresses(mainly all of them during his reign of fame)... including Evan.

The metaphorical comparison of movies helps bring about the idea of a starlet. This is both erotic and sinister in nature. I think it combines the emotions of his lust as well as his frustrations with those whom he was(and is) inside of a relationship with. Something simple like his line of "come inside" can be looked at as "come inside of my mind" as well as a more explicit "cum inside." Then with the line of "I hate taking off my gloves" is usually something stating about how people get their hands dirty. Or even going bare knuckle with attacks.

The whole acting portion of it seems like it is him saying that he was just playing around with his extremities when dealing with her, and, in the following lines, seems to say that he feels she was just acting(and overacting) about feeling for him. Which would bring more sense to the whole "don't confuse this with love" parts.

The main portion of it saying that "everytime I kill you I'm just killing myself" seems to show how he ends up damaging himself trying to tarnish their image inside of his own mind. To kill off how he felt kills of what he feels. Followed up by the whole "there's another one just like you waiting in line" brings out the fact that there is someone else who'll be the exact same thing to him that she was, and might even do the same good and bad towards him that she did.

More than anything, I really feel that this was aimed towards Evan since they did break up for majority of the recording of this album . . . only to get back together with her in the following months. This much more personal and less cryptic Manson has a much stronger sense of sensuality inside of his work. Of course being more personal allows one to display more raw emotion. I, for one, really enjoy it. It's not as exposing as EMDM, nor is it as muddled with trying to say too much at one time. This is definitely an album that deserves a listen for anyone whom formerly enjoyed his work to a [even] semi-extended degree.

the lyrics to this song are so fuckin intense. and his voice and how he says some things are insane.

"There's so much, much, much more skin to break I haven't even taken off my gloves"

there's something about that part that gets me in the weirdest way.

This song is about when Evan Rachel Wood dumped him on christmas day '08. Afterwards, he called her 158 times in a row, and after each cut, he cut hisself on his arms and face, to show her how much she hurt him, physically. Before I read this, I didn't really like this song. Afterwards it made much more since to me. He means he really wants to kill her for it,

google it.

This song is so freaking long LOL but I love it!

i love how through all of this album is voice is so rough. it sounds nice and i agree with "thrwymhrtawy" but the fact that alot of his songs including this song get me in a weird way, it feels nice but weird massive compliment!

Ok, many of Manson's lyrics have to do with the Masons and Illuminati. See: King Kill 33, and the whole Holy Wood album. Research the roots of the word Hollywood (it is wood from the holly plant that magicians used to make their wands)..

For all of the truths he points out in his music, there is much more he does NOT reveal, in order to 'play the game.' With that in mind, Manson here is admitting that he plays a part in this magic. He wants to kill (your mind) like they do in the movies.

I was stupid enough to not realize until today (4 years after listening this entire album for the first time) that the "cut, cut, cut" parts were kind of a pun between cinematographic terminology and self-harm; yes, I'm ridiculously slow to understand some things, sometimes.

Good song. Without giving it too much thought, and probably being a long way off correct, i got vibes of a movie maker going though intense anguish to the point where all they care for is what is captured to film. The actress pretends (acts) and the director pretends (does what ever is required to get the desired results). If the actress fails, there's a line of others only too happy to take the place of another.

I read that to, I thought it was fucking stupid.
