Letter By Maria

It was good to realize
How stupid we were to hide
All that is a sin
All that we didn't agree
All that feels nice and hurts
 
Calm down, man,
You were the only one to hide
 
The street and the moon are my parents
I'm round, white and nude
I was born to live, not to save myself
 
I bathe in the sacred waters
Meet me at the crossroads
I drink and dance in the face of death and pain
 
The street and the moon are my parents
I'm round, white and nude
I was born to live, not to save myself
Or to get married
Why getting married?
 
But what about love,
Maybe it never made it to you?
All that we went through
All that we pictured for ourselves
Isn't any of this important to you?
 
Calm down, man,
You were the only one to hide
 
The street and the moon are my parents
I'm round, white and nude
I was born to live, not to save myself
 
I don't want the finest life
A castle or nice clothes
Am I mongrel for you to rescue me?
 
I never said I wanted a bed
I turn the world into one
I only ask you to respect me so I'll respect you
 
I'm not rich, but I'm not stupid
I can smell who is up to no good
What you call love is actually a rope
To hang me
 
Why getting married?
Why should I get married?
