Marilyn Manson

We Are Chaos

We Are Chaos

---

Vocals

I haven't heard what Marilyn Manson has been doing for many years. Back in school I had the nickname "Manson" but it was said to me in a negative way.

I have always liked his vocals. You can tell it is him, even if there are some people that have similar voices.

Music

This music is surprisingly upbeat in tone. I have come to notice there are many songs that take this stance. The lyrics are tackling a challenge but the music sounds like it is a cheery day and is kept catchy. The keyboard actually stands out for me in this song. Overall, not my kind of song.

Lyrics

The words seem to be talking about how everyone has issues. There is no perfect person.

If you say that we're ill, give us your pill
Hope we'll just go away
But once you've inhaled death
Everything else is perfume

We are sick, fucked up and complicated
We are chaos, we can't be cured
