lyrics
Mystery Maria mystifies me all the time
She laughs at ancient rules designed to keep her in a line
She found me broke, still dripping from that Alamosa rain
Standing just inside the door of the Holiday Arcade
And didn’t roll on
Through a crooked little grin, she said, “that storm’s a give and take”
I slumped into a corner booth to contemplate the moment I can’t shake
She said, “be careful what you wish for,
Fear the world as much as being alone,
Those with everything want more
And never question what you know
To be high stakes”
Mystery Maria, she was naked all the time
She said, “it’s how we’re born and how I plan to die”
She must’ve been an angel, but from where she’d never tell
Kept a cast of actors, quoted books she’d never read
And she rolled on
In her little wisdoms always lived the center of some truth
But I’m afraid the messages weren’t clear enough to be conveyed to you
Except when she said…
She said, “be careful what you wish for,
Fear the world as much as being alone,
Those with everything want more
And never question what you know
To be high stakes”
Hearts get heavy like the burden of a lie
We all need help to do the lifting, it’ll eat you up inside
