Putting Holes in Happiness Lyrics

Cover art for Putting Holes in Happiness lyrics by Marilyn Manson

i think the song is abour how he is glad that his marrige was over in some ways but still is struggling to let it go,'i should have burried all my dead up in her cemetery head' could mean that he could have started a new after the divorce but he is still the mess that dita turned him into...and the chorus seems to me like he was choosing to act how she wanted him to than his fans,'blow out the candles on all my frankensteins' could mean that he didnt care about his fans any more,frankensteins being a metaphor for the fanbase that dress like goths and act creepy,and his deathwsh being his label as a satanic idol and a bad influence on teens.

the rest of the chorus seems to be about how it seemed okay at the beggining but in the end he wasnt happy, 'i shoud have picked the photograph it lasted longer than you' suggests that he should have stuck with being just a fan of ditas than actually marrying her.
