Hail Mary, you're conveniently buried this evening Missed me dodging bullets on a subject that is not worth repeating
I wish you were my mother and I wish you couldn't hear I wish this memory lanes promoted growth instead of fear I wish I wasn't forced to rob a grave to pull you near
Hail Mary, here's the new baton to pass in the relay Between the bathhouse and the colored mountains lining the freeway
I wish you were my lover with your hands in place of ears I wish that co-dependence could sustain us through the years I wish that wrecking fantasies could pass for a career
No one turn the light on, turn the light on in the morning No one turn the light on, turn the light on in the morning Someone turn the light on, turn the light on in the morning Somebody turn the light on
Hail Mary, is this golden ticket all that you've left me? For the therapists to pawn off and retire on the proceeds?
I wish you were in person that you are in souvenirs I wish I could remember if my last words were sincere I wish I could construct a better song for you my dear, oh
