Maria

I offer my prayers to Maria of the worn-out church
As light is stolen, trembling is not allowed
The boy who forgot even to close his eyes
Hides the marks of sin on his wrist

Continuing to murmur in the decaying remains of my mother
The bouquet in my hands has lost its past form
That gentle gaze remains pure like an untouched girl
Only staring at the unchanging time

"There’s no pain... so don’t cry anymore..."
"If you want peace... I’ll grant your wishes..."
"You’re not scared... come closer..."
"As you are, I’ll take everything from you..."
Right now, no one can save you but me
So go ahead and close your eyes

"There’s no pain... so don’t cry anymore..."
"If you want peace... I’ll grant your wishes..."
"You’re not scared... come closer..."
"As you are, just gently fall asleep"

"It’s not suffering... so don’t cry anymore..."
"You can’t escape... I’ll forgive everything about you..."
"This isn’t the end... come closer..."
"As you are, I’ll take everything from you..."

Because I’ll never forget you
So go ahead and close your eyes
