Lana Dolorosa Lyrics by Marsy Mars

Mars Lives

2019

Lana, whose
Will held not her day’s disease
Maria, too;
They, with bent benediction
And soul glued
For cheaper, for good, and for better
With palms as their turtle feathers
Flew away
“Laissez un petit paix pour me,”
The Caxiense petitions God in broken French
“Don’t let my spirit be a roost upon waste
Let my spirit migrate, and please you new ways.”
“May I return Frelimo-strong, and Descartes-wise
And if there is a war I'll bring it home."
Lana, whose
Will held not her day’s disease
And Maria flew home again;
They, with bent benediction
And soul glued
Touched one hand to the fortune she'd scorned
And to what it had protected her from;
To neither turned her back
I’d kiss the ground she walks on
If she only lived in a cleaner neighbourhood
She was the author of her world
Like most authors, never wrote;
And like all authors wished for something better for her subject
Maybe I’m a fool
Maybe that played a part
And maybe now I’ll come to know anew
And be a better kind of fool
Down song, you birds, and listen to this
