Ave Maria - KMFDM

ave maria

mother Mary shouting out her name

ave maria

bearing witness in the face of pain

honor slowly letting go

hearts thunder from the beating

standing alone

deus ex feces

build begotten holy mutant downfall of a species

morituri te salutant

show me something to believe in

tell me one truth i don’t know

give me something to hold onto

point me somewhere i can go

ave maria

they’re forgiving in the age of shame

ave maria

watching as we’re buried in

where angels fear to tread

bloody hands, foolish men

dare spite the dragon’s head

deus ex feces

build begotten holy mutant downfall of a species

morituri te salutant

give me wisdom to live up to

tell me what i ought to know

reignite the fire inside me

be with me when i must go

ave maria

ave maria

ave maria

mother Mary shouting out her name

ave maria

bearing witness in the face of pain
