| Like many of the Mechanical Animal songs, this song has hints to how the world is so dark and horrid. And people say manson is so horrible, but I guess it takes someone to slam it in their faces with a body suit, airbrushed boobs and a good guitar solo for them to realise how... bleak... the world is. This also hints to plain out suffering, directing it to someone who, doesn't have to face that burden. The "when you hate it" kind of strikes me similar to the phrase "time flies when you're having fun." You know, when you hate it, its there, like when you're in an uncomfortable position, it seems to last longer. And "when you love" it's not really love, it's like everything is one lie except for the pain. I love this song. It is my all-time favorite. The guitar solo is the epitome of amazing. I put this song on repeat, lie on my bed and cry for about three hours. It's truly a deep song. | |

| For me the song has a lot to do with being walked on over and over again and basically killing yourself (maybe mentally) to make someone else happy, "but I'll just suffer in a hope to die someday while you are numb all of the way" and the person you care so much about doesn't even notice how much you want to be their everything, they're numb to it because they can't see past themselves. And I love the last line..."Shoot myself to love you, if I loved myself I'd be shooting you." Kind of implementing that if the person truly cared for themselves they would get rid of whats causing them these feelings of worthlessness and constant betrayal. | |

| You all have said all and anything I could possibly say. so all that I can say without copying is that this is possibly one of his best songs | |

| For me this song is about loving someone more than anything but they were never really worth your love to begin with. A love that you would do anything for and have sacrificed for but in the end you are hurt and alone and suffering. | |

| love the line "The living are dead and I hope to join them, too." great song. at the end i think it has a little bit of that 'when you really love someone you will kill them' idea from godeatgod | |

| Hmmm. . . .I have trouble with this one. I forget: in the booklet, is this supposed to be an Omega song or an Alpha song? | |
