Lyrics & Music by yasu
Maria, love me, deceive me until I die
Maria, on this white skin, mark me once more
Dive into the neon sea
A drowning pessimist
Red lips call out to me, every word just trifling
A dance for just one night
An angel's replicant?
All my cares and fruitless worries solved in that lustful night
On your shoulder, it smiles at me, Maria's tattoo [1]
As if to make me think embracing you now would make me live
Resurrected in the times I went to meet you in the night
Maria, love me, deceive me until I die
Maria, on this white skin, mark me once more
Seeking not transient lust, but true love
Even now, they ache, the marks of Maria's nails on my heart
Those familiar sighs
You're a snake charmer
The wet flower petals opening as they are, and I, starved with desire as I am
On your shoulder, it smiles at me, Maria's tattoo
If I embraced you, I had the feeling I would be moved by love
A goddess vanished in the morning, a fantasy?
Maria, in this empty world, there's only you
Maria, what you drew on my white skin, marking me
Maria, love me, deceive me until I die
Maria, on this white skin, mark me once more
In this world of so much haze, there's a single truth
The scars you left behind, those are the nail marks of Maria
