Apple of Sodom

About Apple of Sodom

"Apple of Sodom" is a song recorded by American rock band Marilyn Manson for the soundtrack to David Lynch's 1997 film Lost Highway. It was written by the band's eponymous vocalist and produced by Manson with Sean Beavan. Lynch personally chose the band to contribute music to the soundtrack as he found Manson inspiring, and because of the band's commercial viability. An industrial song about obsession, "Apple of Sodom" was named after the eponymous fruit, and was inspired by Manson's feelings about singer Fiona Apple. The song was followed by multiple collaborations between Manson and Lynch. The track received a mainly positive response from music critics, who commended its composition. A music video was directed by Joseph Cultice; it was produced in 1996, although initially was not made public due to its low-budget nature and depiction of nudity. The clip was released to YouTube in 2009. It garnered critical acclaim and comparisons to the work of Manson's contemporaries. more »

I've found the center of fruit as late
Is the center of truth today.
Cut the apple in two.
Oh, I pray it isn't true.

I've got something you can never eat.
I've got something you can never eat.
I've got something you can never eat.
I've got something you can never eat.

I've drained my heart, I've burned my soul.
I've trained the core to stop my growth.
I pray to die in grace,
To cover me in snow,
To cover me in snow,
Cover me in snow,
I'm dying, I hope you're dying too.
Cover me in snow.
I'm dying, I hope you're dying too.
I'm dying, I hope you're dying too.
I'm dying, I hope you're dying too.

I'm dying, I hope you're dying too.
I'm dying, I hope you're dying too.
I'm dying, I hope you're dying too.
I'm dying, I hope you're dying too.

Take this from me.
Hate me. Hate me.
Take this from me.
Hate me. Hate me.

Marilyn Manson

Brian Hugh Warner (born January 5, 1969), better known by his stage name Marilyn Manson, is an American rock musician and former music journalist known for his controversial stage persona and image as the lead singer of the eponymous band Marilyn Manson. His stage name was formed from juxtaposing the names of two American cultural icons, namely actress Marilyn Monroe and multiple murder convict Charles Manson as a critical and, simultaneously, laudatory appraisal of America and its peculiar culture. The seemingly outrageous visual and vocal styles he employs, his unique interpretations of familiar songs and the controversy surrounding his lyrics and imagery have led to his very pronounced public appeal. more »
