Lyrics
[Verse 1] You wake up, your nose still raw and still out of place And all the lines left from your mask tattooed on your face You've come to know there's only sleep and there's never rest There is no room for imagination, someone once said [Chorus] Marie, as the undersea calls, Marie, as the undersea calls Marie, as the undersea calls, Marie, as the undersea calls Marie Calls out your name [Verse 2] Next thing you're flicking your cigarette out of a window If you are ripped off on the ride, well, you'll never know Then you say, "Drop me off right here," and ambulance lights Flash like a paparazzi waiting, all through the night [Chorus] Marie, as the undersea calls, Marie, as the undersea calls Marie, as the undersea calls, Marie, as the undersea calls Marie Calls out your name [Bridge] When the hospital ward starts to feel like you're deep undersea You keep pulling the line for some more air, but it does nothing And where once you would see all the faces, now it's only eyes You keep pulling the line for some more air, but it's only eyes [Verse 3] This shift is over, dead on your feet, you're forced to walk home 'Cause all of the taxis and the subways have been shut down You've come to know there's only sleep and there's never rest There is no room for imagination, someone once said [Chorus] Marie, when the undersea called, Marie, when the undersea called Marie, when the undersea called, Marie, when the undersea called Marie Calls out your name [Outro] Calls out your name
