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
It tells you too much
Or not enough
Or worse
Exactly the wrong thing
Every nuance
Every detail
Every movement
Every smell
Sound
Phrase
Reflexion
The way she laughs
These are all the things that you obsessively fetishize
Or make yourself grow to love
Although you are supposed to be done growing
She is still growing
Its 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-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
Its 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-fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
You never wanted
To share
Your 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-fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it
Fa fa fa fa fake it

What is the meaning behind The Gardener lyrics?
When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, The Gardener by Marilyn Manson is a metaphor for a relationship where one partner's growth and self-expression are silenced by the other's controlling ideas. The controlling partner is likened to a gardener who allows only one flower to flourish in the garden and thus limits the growth of the other. The overall theme of the lyrics is largely about angst, reflection, heartbreak, despair, and solitude. However, there are also themes of inauthenticity, perception vs. reality, struggle for identity and control, and possession. The lyrics depict a wide range of emotions and complex themes that might be more appropriate for older teens and adults. The language and imagery, although not explicit, are about very subtle and possibly intense matters such as identity, perception, and relationships which might need a more mature grasp. ✔️
