Song
Lyrics
The day they covered us in the dirt
Like stars in the ground that will grow into dead flowers
The day they covered us in the dirt
Like stars in the ground that will grow into dead flowers
Your body's on me like sleepless spiders
Your touch is so empty, your touch is so empty
Your body's on me like sleepless spiders
Your touch is so empty, your touch is so empty
Your touch is so empty, your touch is so empty
I've been running from the bloodless for fear of exile
For all of my sorceries that shun the light, that shun the light
I've been running from the bloodless for fear of exile
For all of my sorceries that shun the light, that shun the light
The day they covered us in the dirt
Like stars in the ground that will grow into dead flowers
The day they covered us in the dirt
Like stars in the ground that will grow into dead flowers
I've been running from the bloodless for fear of exile
For all of my sorceries that shun the light, that shun the light
I've been running from the bloodless for fear of exile
For all of my sorceries that shun the light, that shun the light
I've been running from the bloodless for fear of exile
For all of my sorceries that shun the light, that shun the light
I've been running from the bloodless for fear of exile
For all of my sorceries that shun the light, that shun the light
I've been running from the bloodless for fear of exile
For all of my sorceries that shun the light, that shun the light
Light, light, light, light
Trivia
- This song's title does not mark Manson's first use of the phrase. A painting by Manson premiered at the 2006 Celebritarian Corporation Gallery of Fine Art exhibition under the name Les Fleurs du Mal, French for "The Flowers of Evil." The following year, the Flowers of Evil exhibition opened in Moscow, Russia.
