Mary came back in the middle of December 
With a scar she never could remember 
She was always so high in school 
And no one ever knew the difference 
Then we'd cut class and we'd dream about the ocean 
Was it you or a chemical emotion? 
Everything was crystal clear 
And you could sing the words to that song 
I could never find 

Hurry up now its the middle of the story 
Where the king goes out in the blaze of glory 
And everything is a mystery 
And We will never die 
You're a four letter word that I used to know 
four letter word that I used to know 
You're a four letter word that I used to know 
Like hope, and pain, and Mary. 

Lyin' in the sand while the moon was risin' 
Full of thoughts and the feelins i was hidin 
All the words that I tried to say 
I never did reveal 
The summer flew by and I headed off to school 
Met a girl, I lost touch with you. 
Now everything is crystal clear 
But still i find that somehow you [bad word] through my mind 

Hurry up now its the middle of the story 

Where the king goes out in the blaze of glory 
And everything is a mystery 
And we will never die 
You're a four letter word that I used to know 
four letter word that I used to know 
You're a four letter word that I used to know 
Like hope, and pain, and Mary. 

 [bad word] in circles 
Pain fades away 
Lyin on the beach with the world out of reach 
Me and Mary 

Hurry up now its the end of the story 
Where the king goes out in the blaze of glory 
Everything is a mystery 
And we will never die 
 [bad word] seems to happen for a reason 
Was it me or the end of the season? 
Did you fall off your saddle while you [bad word] down 
You're a four letter word that I used to know 
four letter word that I used to know 
You're a four letter word that I used to know 
Like hope, and pain, and Mary. 
Mary
