I discovered this song a couple of days ago and I already love it. I've had this love-hate relationship with Manson ever since The High End of Low but this song has certainly reassured me that the dark genius of Antichrist Superstar and Holy Wood is back. I like that. I really do.
I think this song carries a very personal meaning. It seems like Manson is talking about a certain alter-ego, probably a rather evil and violent one. At least that's the impression I get from the music video and the overall sound of the song. Maybe this ego is overtaking his life and making people avoid him.
"A gun's cliche, and a razor too
I'm not a deathshare vacation, vacant station
Made of scars and filled with my old wounds
This'll hurt you worse than me."
Think about it. He spoke about this being his "big comeback" so perhaps this song is his declaration of liberation from that alter-ego. Or maybe it fully overtook him. I don't know really.
Also, I agree with TryingToBeHuman. It is definitely "I'm weak seven days a week".
