Marilyn Manson - The Gardener Lyrics






I’m not man enough to be human
But I’m trying to fit in
And I’m learning to fake it

Don’t ever meet their friends
It tells you too much
Or not enough
Or worse
Exactly the wrong thing
Every nuance
Every detail
Every movement
Every smell
Sound
Phrase
Inflection
The way she laughs
These are all the things that you obsessively fetishize
Or make yourself grow to love
Although you are supposed to be done growing
She is still growing
Its like a garden with two flowers
One just blooming and casting a shadow
Just like yours
And then it becomes a struggle
Of sunlight
Or rain
Or weeds

She and every she
Is doomed to be your idea of her
She and every she
Is doomed to be your idea of her

I’m not man enough to be human
But I’m trying to fit in
And I’m learning to fa fa fake it

But worse so,
Back to the point
You are no longer the flower
And the sun
And most importantly the garden
Or the gardener
A muse
Your amusement
I am used
It's all ruined if you meet their friends

She and every she
Is doomed to be your idea of her
She and every she
Is doomed to be your idea of her

I’m not man enough to be human
But I’m trying to fit in
And I’m learning to fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Ffffffffffffffake it

You never wanted
To share
Your concept of your creation
With any other gods or worshippers

Your book isn’t burned
It was never written
Your book isn’t burned
It was never written

I’m not man enough to be human
But I’m trying to fit in
And I’m learning to fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Ffffffffffffffake it

Such a jewel slipping right through their slick fingers whilst they busy themselves typing odes of adornment on his other videos or moaning how they miss the good old times of MM.......(This comment only posted to stimulate rage in others).

    T.... C....

    100% agree..

    T.... C....

    s.... 6....

    Yeah, Holy Wood is the best album <3

    s.... 6....

    Portrait of an American Family...............????????

  68. M.... I....

    😍💖💜

  69. M.... B....

    Esto es buena música!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  70. D.... N....

    Pretty much like Apple of Sodom

    D.... N....

    +Douglas Navega with a magnificent bass line in addition.

  71. D.... ....

    I love every single Manson album. I hated all the albums after Holy Wood for a long time. But then Pale Emperor came out. I hadn't listened to Manson for years but damn, I was really diggin it. So I decided to go back and check out the albums I never gave a chance. I was missing out. This shit is great. Everything this man has released is amazing.

    D.... ....

    @Dude same as me dude

    D.... ....

    SURE :D

    D.... ....

    damn man im going through the exact same thing now lol.. as soon as i heard golden age of grotesque i hated every song on it and just stopped listening to his stuff. but i heard mephistopeles of los Angeles on YouTube and loved it, so i got on amazon and ordered every album after gaog and realized i made a misteak back in 04... love all his albums now

    D.... ....

    The Dude abides! I'm digging into Manson's catalogue more than I ever have, and now that I'm seeing his career from a distance, I'm pretty shocked that some people hated on Golden Age Of Grotesque and (shocked to a lesser extent re: the next few). Every album has _great_ shit, and his last two albums, _"The Pale Emperor"_ and _"Heaven Upside Down"_ may be my favorite albums of his from top to bottom, along with "_Holy Wood"_

  72. T.... H....

    This is so relevant, <3

  73. J.... J....

    The best song from that album.

  74. w.... ....

    That fuckin groovy bass. Love it.

  75. B.... ....

    F-f-fucking great song.

  76. J.... V....

    nice, i like listening to some of his deeper lyrics

  77. S.... M....

    Too much hate for Manson for doing something different on each album. Its called versatility people! They're a lot better than 90% of the bands out there that sound the same on every track

    S.... M....

    C Kevlar you forgot the other two wishes

    S.... M....

    Everyone got mad at Korn for that too :'(

    S.... M....

    Skye Meadows hes just became shit. and he tried different stuff in the beginning except it worked

    S.... M....

    I agree with you but I don't like Born Villain at all.

    S.... M....

    Skye Meadows whats funny is to me I like the new albums even more up to pale emperor I still love the old shit tho

  78. 0.... ....

    We the real humans....fuck the sheep

  79. 0.... ....

    too many ads you tube!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  80. A.... Z....

    dear god, his voice is so delicious

    i want it to make love to me

    A.... Z....

    Tbh I just like the music but ok damn XD

    A.... Z....

    His voice. ...even when he's just speaking...so amazingly different and soothing. ..not into him "like that" but definately, that voice

  81. E.... L....

    They should make a music video for this. I'm trying to imagine it

  82. Q.... ....

    His voice is pretty much orgasmic. 

    Q.... ....

    Especially when you have earbuds in and your just sitting there like asdfghjkl

    Q.... ....

    I normally bring a extra set of boxers when I go out for this reason

  83. A.... T....

    the reason you people think it's his second worst album is because you don't understand it , try reading Les fleurs du mal and this album starts to make a bit of sense.

    even GAOG makes sense , all of Manson's albums are good, it's hard to categorize, because every album has a different theme, you can't compare romanticism to decadence, just like you can't compare Mechanical Animals to Golden Age of Grotesque

    A.... T....

    Mechanical Animals was a pair with Antichrist Superstar, and they are worlds apart. It kind of shows the thought process with how his albums are suppose to be new entities each time.

    A.... T....

    Born Villain is the only album of manson that i don't like at all..

    A.... T....

    Long vie a Baudelaire :)

  84. M.... M....

    And i'm learning to f f f fake it! Live this song

  85. D.... ....

    It's like a garden with two flowers.

  86. T.... I....

    And for you an artist that do spoken word is mediocre compared to some kinda brainless rockstar screaming the shit out of everybody?

  87. T.... I....

    I agree, no. In fact I think is his 2nd worst album. Compared with his other work, TGAOG is... funny

  88. t.... ....

    golden age of grotesque is and will always be his best album^^

  89. R.... ....

    Holy Wood is the best Era. I can't believe! THEOL was a big mistake for the band! Except for Running To The Edge Of The World, Wight Spider, Arma, Pretty as a $ and Leave A Scar the rest of the album is a piece of shit!

  90. m.... ....

    Me encanta...

  91. C.... H....

    Su voz es hermosa.

  92. A.... ....

    I love this....

  93. i.... p....

    need to buy this album this song is pure porn

  94. C.... W....

    I love his voice, so pretty!

  95. A.... T....

    Personally,
    I have been alone since I was 10 years old, i am 21 now.

    And the chorus of this song always gets me in the chest, people saying I need a girl and to get out there and fill my day with a multitude of hobbies.

    And hell, I am just try to fit i'm and yeah. I'm learning to fake it.

    A.... T....

    So how's it been?

  96. C.... B....

    True fans stick with it til the end. I love it all, for being his fan I can accept all of his work and growth of music.

  97. H.... ....

    Thought the growth was kind of an overpowering growth / intellectual growth / manipulation / character traits ? Each overpowering each other as each flower grows in the garden?
