Description "she's made of hair and little teeth
and things I cannot speak
she comes on like a crippled plaything
spine is just a string
I wrapped our love in all this foil
silver tight like spider legs
I never wanted it to ever spoil
but flies will always lay their eggs
take your hatred out on me
make your victim my head
you never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquet
prosthetic synthesis with butterfly
sealed up with virgin stitch
if it hurts just tell me
preserve the innocence
I never wanted it to end this way
but flies will lay their eggs"

-marilyn manson, tourniquet

manson is one of my favourite songwriters, well... when it comes to lyrics...
today I got really inspired by his music.
I shouldn't probaply draw when I'm sick, but I just can't stop...
hmm...after autopsy they put your brains in your stomach and seal it. I think I could live without that information...

Comment! Vitun runkkarit...

dunno what there is to hate? he is one of the best lyricist of this century. It's just trendy to say you hate something based on the general public than just base your opinion on how you actually feel.

I saw this Print on someone's wishlist... and I only saw the title.

Immediately I knew it was Marilyn Manson. Bravo for illustrating his lyrics. I'm working on "Angel with the Scabbed Wings" myself.

I love the stitched up torso and the dabbled off-white in the upper left corner. The shadow definition on the hand looks awkward. Perhaps if you added a horizontal crease on it it might lok more natural, but then again, the song itself is not "natural".

ah, one of my favorite manson songs. This drawing PERFECTLY fits the lyrics. I love it. You have some amazing talent. This almost looks like something of Manson's work too, just a bit more in depth.

Ah shit, I JUST out up a new Favorite on my page so I can't crank this one up there just yet, but I will be back for it. This picture is brilliant, I love Manson, I remember at the age of 13 when I first heard Torniquet I had to go ask my Dad what one was, then spend a good 15 minutes trying to figure out how that releted to the song.

i love the protesting hand. ^_^

...and they toss the brain in the chest cavity because it's too difficult to push it back into the skull.
they usually stuff the skull with brown paper. ;D

sometimes the ancient egyptians replaced the eyeballs of those they were mummifying with small onions, so that the eyelids would not cave in! yay! (trivia. i love it.)

wyrm-sign [2002-12-16 20:28:56 +0000 UTC]

Olet vitun mahtava, yeah. The perspective on this is really interesting, ery nice job with the foreshortenning. Again, you have those fucking excellent lines with such rich, strong, and defined quality. I also rellay like the sequencial appearance of this. The three panel thing is very cool, and it helps really building a narrative into this piece outside of the song lyrics. Heh, the only reason I know the song is really that I have a fucking great cover of it done by a band Bile, but I think you are right in saying that manson is rather skilled with writing lyrics for songs. This is definitely going in my favs.
