Lyrics Joseph Arthur

Joseph Arthur

Marina

Marina coming off of methadone

Kickin and dreamin

And she's sleeping and screaming

Watching 90210

She'll be yelling at the screen

Until the late night show

I don't believe I'm alive she said

Everyday has something new

Aw baby with the moon I lie

And with the sun I will rise

It's all there in her eyes

You don't know how hard I try

Each time that Marina cries

It's like she's got no disguise

Marina is a human bicycle

She's riding in the park

Riding after dark

Spinning her wheels to make a psark

Hoping to change her blame into a plague

She plays guitar

She dreams and sings

She writes a song about what it means

That she never feels

Much like a human being
