Song Maria (A Face of History)
Artist Golden Apes
Album The Geometry of Tempest

Lyrics

I sell a truth, I sell myself - devotions in a cage
The sweat of moon runs down my tongue, between grace and chosen rage
I wait for you with thousand nails to place them in your heart
The failures' smoke does really hurt, but they won't get us apart
Do you remind that yesterday, that crawled upon the floor
where I baptized you, down the sea, with a face of history
Oh Maria, my heart-attack, and all the worlds are swimming all around
Oh Maria, my heart-attack, and all the moons are making nasty sounds
Oh Maria, my heart-attack, abandoned brides will write these books again
Oh Maria, my heart-attack, you look so historically with all your tangled rain
I take two steps on watery streets and pass inviting hosts
The cripples dance inside their caves around icons of two ghosts
I call to you through harlot skies to justify my scars
The jealous tears taste awfully, all poured in useless wars
Do you remind that yesterday, that perished down the floor
where I refused you, down the sea, with your face of history
Oh Maria, my heart-attack...
