Marie (My Secret Sin)

If these are the last words off my tongue Let it be known, my final songs been sung And Marie, Momma, you could never be wrong But I always knew that I wouldn’t live long Warm hugs in the lobby Now it is your precious smile That has this young man sobbing My objective To remain faithful and effective And perhaps I came up on my own Time spent is time blown And I promise not to be a dead beat Or let my enemies beat my head in the seat Until I’m gone and deceased I’ll take that same stubborn path Prophecies of cowards scheming To lay me asleep on a bloody mat At times, we can be so responsible And act with such charisma Shooting for T-O-P-S, expelled as a senior Now I don’t even know what my future career is ma Still awaiting happiness to make a series premiere Something as bizarre as gothic fairies being sincere As an adolescent, I conquered the lessons Slaughtered consequences, jumped fences, Kept my audience in suspense Constantly hitting them hard with something intensive Every now and then I come across something offensive Crush them into saw dust with grammatical utensils
