Matthew Moran - Marie Lyrics

You left me alone but I don't really blame you, I don't
You thought I would hate you, don't worry, I can't and I won't
But there are questions unanswered though they're answers I don't want to hear
I'm no good at this distance but damn sure no good when you're near
My friends, they keep telling me, "Man, you sure handle it well."
Conveniently they overlook when I slip into my hell
Close the world out and I don't return their calls for days
Emerge baptized in memories and exorcized of my rage
Oh Marie, this is one thing you can't take away
My pain is a labor love, it's what's left of me
If forgiveness is freedom then you'll find me shackled and chained
And I know love is the answer but it's to questions I don't understand
The who and the when, the what and the where and the why
And how did I miss all the signs of your unspoken goodbye
Oh Marie, this is one thing you can't take away
My pain is a labor love, it's what's left of me
Oh Marie, this is one thing you can't take away
My pain is a labor love, it's what's left of me
What's left of me
Take what's left of me
Take it all baby
