I got my own Maria
She’s my inside turned out
Red and white perfection
I see her standing there and I know
She’s barely hanging on
I feel her boring a hole through me
As if I could be an anchor

She comes to me secretly
Whispers in my ear soft and low
Little seductress, oh Maria
Stop calling me away from me
Jump if you want
But don’t pull me down in darkness
I can’t be your safety net

Maria walks out the door
She doesn’t say another word
But I follow like a pup
Nipping at her heels stuck on her scent
Licking her soft white skin
Every chance I get
Maria smiles throws back her head

Her laughter scares me
I wonder why I can’t let go
Cut me off, Maria
Unlock the shackles on my feet
Refuse my call, Maria
Send me away unsatisfied confused
I can’t save either of us
