Marilyn Manson – Cupid Carries A Gun lyrics

Marilyn Manson – Cupid Carries A Gun lyrics

[Verse:]
Pound me the witch drums, the witch drums
Pound me the witch drums
Pound me the witch drums, the witch drums
Betta pray for hell, not hallelujah
Out looked caught a fist, dead and hearted spiders
Like to mangle crowns on the wires of the meanings
Cold snakes, folks that'll lie, look like death
Live in a hotel of my eyes
Lies wide open like a whore paid
Spit from the hell's beat pedophile

[Chorus:]
Keep your head up, it's time
I need God, are you God in the air?
Keep your head up, it's time
One hand on the check, and the other hand in mine
Peace now, Cupid carries a gun
Now, now, Cupid Cupid carries a gun

[Verse 2:]
Pound me the witch drums, the witch drums
Pound me the witch drums
Pound me the witch drums, the witch drums
Betta pray for hell, not hallelujah
She had those crow black eyes
Starless but she fucked like a comet
Laid and still as a bible
And felt like Revelations when I looked inside

[Chorus:]
Keep your head up, it's time
I need God, are you God in the air?
Keep your head up, it's time
One hand on the check, and the other hand in mine
Peace now, Cupid carries a gun
Now, now, Cupid Cupid carries a gun

This song is about the dangers of blindly following religion and the negative side of love. If you follow religious teachings without actually believing in them, you could end up bringing extra negativity into your life and just in general hurting yourself. Love can be very risky, and it can end in pain and serious trust issues.

I believe this is about a former lover who pretended to be a witch. She was dominated by religious parents or a guardian. At first, he was enamoured with her seeming innocence only to find it was a passive-aggressive means of control. Cupid carrying a gun means he has upped the stakes from arrows. Obviously, he was hurt by this relationship.

It's about Marilyn Manson realizing the ugliness and sin he's become, as portraying Marilyn Manson, he doesn't want to be this no longer, it's time for change, he's resurrecting Cupid who is the Angel with the scabbed wings, and now he carries a gun because the boy that Marilyn Manson loved is now the man that he fears Brian Warner.
