Stella West - Ode to The Devil (Mother Mary) lyrics

I’ve been sitting in the cold for three days I’ve been trying to understand the cause of your wicked way I’m looking for an answer I know I’ll never find Because as soon as I have the question it dissolves and leaves my mind And this part of the garden is mine It’s where I sit and wonder about what happens when you die I hope the truth turns out to be a lie Chorus: Oh Mary, oh Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary I wonder if you could save me from this Oh Mary, mother Mary, mother Mary, mother Mary Was I put here so others know what suffering is? And everyday swims by I’m a swan in a lake Encumbered with thoughts about making my next mistake I try to reach out and grab a hand But I’m met by people with sadness of their own In abandoned, barren lands Oh if I could only Oh if I could only Plant flowers so bright and so new On the land they tried to take from you Where the sky is never blue Just grey and eating away at everything that tries to bloom Chorus I’ll take the burden Because nobody should know darkness like mine And father, father, father I know I’m too far gone Not even you can punish my foe It’s just too evil, too evil to prolong Too dark for your light Too monstrous for you to see my plight That keeps even your angels up at night Chorus There’s no hero No martyr in this book Don’t know why I pray or remember the day My heart, the fiends laughed at and took Chorus.
