lyrics

Anastacia’s Mary

Don’t ever say my name
Maybe I can build it back like bricks that you could never blow away
My back my arms my face
Maybe If I never let them go then they would never lose their way
But what is it to say I’m just a body 
If I say more the reactions become so strained
But we both know the weight I carry satisfies the whole
Of never understanding who I am or of my soul

They place me in the dark
When all I ever wanted was to build up from my heart
Forgotten from the start
I never stood a chance when your grandfathers stole it first from my mama
And here I stand reaching with my all out
For you to find on me your own doubts
The image of a face I’d never recognize
Turn out the lights… and adjust your eyes


Once my flame was bright
Maybe it was a dream designed to set the mind a-flight
Felt love by candlelight
Maybe the fire burned me to the core taking my life 
And the life that was to be
She holds her hand out- offer me the key to change my vision, view, my whole trajectory
And tell me now will anyone else ever recognize the true me

What is this life
You live and grow and wish for souls of ancestors to lift you up
Assure that this is right
The loudest voice to blind you from your mission and here you end up with children 
And their fucked up stories about who you were
And the blood is boiling in you, but just not enough to make you wanna 
Give two fucks which Mary shows up
and well… that’s a thing…

Mary…
