"Everything For Maria" lyrics - THE WORLD OF SKIN

THE WORLD OF SKIN
"Everything For Maria"

I saw you, looked in your eyes and fell through
Hiding, holding my fear inside
Roses, colour your shame as you go
Spinning, room spinning round hear them calling

Everytime she sang for them they'd worship her and then
Present the huge bouquets so elegant of all the flowers
Sweet of scent and words that promise words that call

Maria, everything for Maria
Some say the greatest of all la diva

Lovers, born only from description
Answering, all their own lies
Poison, poison that eats out the heart
Ashes, ashes upon the aegean
Scattering in the wind

The doors burst open with great force
The mirror cracks onto the floor
As greed and vultures descend
Upon her chambers and begin
They take the jewels the tapestries

Of Maria, everything for Maria
Some say the greatest of all la diva

And everytime she sang for them, they'd worship her
And everytime she sang for them, they'd worship her
And everytime she sang for them, they'd worship her
And everytime she sang for them, they'd worship her
And everytime she sang for them, they'd worship her
And everytime she sang for them, they'd worship her
And everytime she sang for them, they'd worship her
