about

The last song on the album. It is under number 15 for a reason. As you may notice its title is the name of my ex best friend, we were talking about in "a ghost" song. I actually love this song for its darkness and suffering. It is about a girl who killed or nearly killed herself. She was questioning everything in her life. And lost the reason to live.
‘Cause she is alright
Living so many years of suffering
She left it behind
Clearly she was alright only for others but not truly alright. Cause she suffered a lot from every problem she experienced. And she left it behind - meaning she decided to let it all go by taking her own life, despite the fact that she had so many reasons to live.
She won’t see a new sunrise
For her we’re all dead
She died, so she won't experience another day, however we're all dead because she lost her faith in human beings, so even if she killed herself, she's in a better place but we are here considered dead without humanity.

lyrics

We are so broken
Why do we so alive?
Her eyes not closed
They’re wide open
Mary wouldn’t lie

‘Cause she is alright
Living so many years of suffering
She left it behind
But there were so many things
There were so many reasons
to breathe in, breathe out

Close your eyes
Mary pulls the trigger
Or swings down with the rope on her neck
She won’t see a new sunrise
For her we’re all dead

Mary
Close your eyes
Mary pulls the trigger
