Maryanna Songtext

von Julia Marcell

I want to be a boy and i wanna hit on girls,
The sun sets down in Olsztyn town in 1984,
High school walls and high school halls
All about the dissolve.
She pulls a flower from her mouth,
A string of pearls from her eyes
Chromosomes ant martyrdom
Dressed in suit and tie.
How I wished to understand,
But I couldn't even try.
Maryanna don't be afraid of me
From far away I look ok
But close up you can see.
Maryanna, on somedays you might say
No black, no white, a sea of grey
I am you and you are me.
Only wearing black, in this body I am bound
Three rounds of bandage round my chest,
I get around in Olsztyn town
Closed up, with the curtains drawn,
So scared of what might hurt.
