Lyrics
You wake up, your nose still raw and still out of place
And all of 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
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
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
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
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
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
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
Calls out your name
