Nothing suffocates you more than
The passing of everyday human events
Isolation is the oxygen mask you make
Your children breath into survive
But I'm not a slave to a god
That doesn't exist
But I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit
And when we were good
You just closed you eyes
So when we are bad
We're going to scar your minds
Fight, fight, fight, fight
You'll never grow up to be a big-
Rock-star-celebrated-victim-of-your-fame
They'll just cut our wrists like
Cheap coupons and say that death
Was on sale today
And when we were good
You just closed you eyes
So when we are bad
We'll scar your minds
But I'm not a slave to a god
That doesn't exist
But I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
But death of a million is just a statistic
he is also annoyed of how people believe in this god that hasnt any type of explanation. I think, he is also annoyed of how poeple say the word God everytime the do not understand something. I might be wrong, if so, correct me please. ''They'll just cut our wrists like
Cheap coupons and say that death
Was on sale today'' I cant tell what he is trying to say if i dont know who is that you he is talking about. but, i think he is talking about the careless people and god, and i think he is saying that for them, for those type of people and god, it is impossible to be like famous or like him( marilyn manson) because of their way of conceiving. I also think
that when he says that thing of the wrists. He is saying that the only thing that they are capable of doing is insulting his music and his way of being making it look like something bad.
i want to know also..who is that you he is talking about. '' And when we were good
You just closed you eyes
So when we are bad
We'll scar your minds''
I think he is trying to tell us that people do not pay attention to good stuff. For example, if he does a song that is commonly classified as ''good'' in all senses, nobody would notice, but if its bad. Everyone will speak about it.
when he says that ''Isolation is the oxygen mask you make
Your children breath into survive'' i think he is trying to say that people are used to raise up their children just one way, the way that everyone knows as the ''correct way'' and he calls it isolation because it does not give the child a free environment in which he could grow up. Making him uncapable of expanding his thoughts beyond. It is the fisrt song of Manson ive ever analized and heard..is this guy intelligent?..please someone that knows tell me.
