Mary Lyrics

Mary had a little lamb

But the city's gone and turned it bland

Now her dreams are on the auction block

Her innocence is sold, so give a flock

Mary had a little lamb, they say it followed her through the flames

In this shattered city, where innocence is just a name

The lamb got caught in razor wire, its wool tangled, bloodied, sold

Mary's heart is now a hollow shell, her hands as cold as stone

Flesh is bartered in back alleys, where they auction off your pride

Mary's fingers trace the scars, etched by every lie

Her lamb's fleece, once pure, now matted, soaked in greed

We slice through our souls, to sate a hunger that won't recede

Shepherds lead the wolves now, the flock is lost in fear

They gnaw on bones, pick the meat clean, as the end draws near

Mary's voice is trembling, as she counts the broken bones

Her lamb's blood is on her hands, as she sits on her empty throne

Mary had a little lamb

But the value's lost, now sell the scam

In the chains of desperation's name

We're all pawns in the same game

Mary had a little lamb

And the streets are paved with broken plans

Her soul's been traded for a fast buck

With every whisper, the rich get their suck

In the gutters of the city, where the hungry come to feed

Mary's selling what she can, to satisfy their need

Her lamb's fleece was white as snow, now it's stained with tears

The price we pay to survive, is to drown out all our tears

Little lamb, little lamb, can you hear the cries?

The world you knew is burning, under crimson skies

Mary's hands are trembling, as she tears away the veil

But every coin she's earned, tells the tale of her betrayal

The knives are out, the vultures circling above

Mary's heart is beating, but she's forgotten how to love

Her lamb's fleece was white as snow, now it's just a rag

The pieces we become, when our souls lost what we had

Mary had a little lamb

Its wool's been torn, now catch the jam

In the chains of survival's blame

We're all pawns in the same game

In the converts of the city, where the hungry comes to feed

Mary walks through the ashes, where innocence used to play

Mary's eyes are empty as she leaves it all behind
