Marian
Sole survivor of
A mass homicide
She gets up
Off of the ground
She inhales deeply and sighs
She gets all up
All up in arms
She gets all over herself
She gets all up
Tough and hard
Whens she gets back from the fields
And on her own derision
She's taking all the blame
She wants to be the villain
In her own play
We got designed as angels
We got maligned instead
We got to be the villains
In our own heads
Her boyfriend Dan
Back in the States
When he gets all the bad news
He's all alone, got no one to fuck with
So he pretends he could choose
And if I'd only been there
If it'd be me instead
I wouldn't be the villain
In my own head
We got designed as paragons
We're undermined instead
And with our virtues real gone
We can hang our heads
God said, "Let there headlines.
Let there be deadline."
All the way I'm feeling it
God, don't let me be unkind
Everyone I meet is fighting an uphill battle
We got designed as angels (We got designed as angels)
We got maligned instead (We got maligned instead)
We got to be the villains (We got to be the villains)
In our owns heads (In our own heads)
We got designed as paragons (We got designed as paragons)
We're undermined instead (We're undermined instead)
And with our virtues real gone (With our virtues real gone)
We can hang our heads
Marian
No survivor of
A mass homicide
She gets up
Out of her room
She exhales deeply in sigh
