The Gardener Lyrics

Cover art for The Gardener lyrics by Marilyn Manson

i feel like its the story of a relationship in comparison to a garden filled with 2 flowers and how they are "growing" and struggling for control. they never wanted to share.

I am trying to understand the concept of how a book fits into all this. Becuase he mentions the symbolism of a book a couple times.

I believe that the whole verse

You never wanted to share Your concept of your creation With any other gods or worshipers Your book isn’t burned It was never written Your book isn’t burned It was never written

Is a reference to the Christian faith, with the aforementioned book being the bible, and the god, obviously the christian god. Now what context(positive or negative) it's used in is beyond me.
