They can′t go to sleep at four

The car is parked outside the door

Scars of a knife on his arm

Her husband knows they're together

Riding with mary protection to pass

Riding with mary protecting immaculate love

Rows of numbered doors behind

The car warms up, the street is clear and empty

And green with lights

They talk and never stop moving

He′s sounding her name in his head

She's falling asleep next to his face

Her sister's getting married today

And the saints of easter smile

On the dashboard rides a figurine

A powerless sweet forgotten thing

So the next time you see a statue of mary

Remember my sister was in a car
