Marilyn Manson - The Gardener (Slowed & Reverb)

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
they'll tell 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
you either obsessively fetishize
or make yourself grow to love.

Although you are supposed to be done growing
she is still growing.
It's 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-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-fa-fake it.
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fake it.
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fake it.
Fa-fa-fa-fake it

You never wanted to share the
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-fa-fake it.
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fake it.
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fake it.
Fa-fa-fa-fake it.
