Marina Lyrics - Big City Secrets - Joseph Arthur

Marina coming off of methadone 

Kicking and dreaming 

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 

Stop 

Marina is a human bicycle 

She's riding in the park, riding after dark 

Spinning her wheels to make a spark 

And 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 

It's all there in her eyes 

Every time Marina cries 

You don't know how hard I try 

It's like she's got no disguise 

You don't know how hard I try 

Every time Marina cries
