Magdalena

Magdalena
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Overcome by your
Moving temple
Overcome by this
Holiest of altars

So pure, so rare, to witness such an earthly goddess
That I've lost my self-control, beyond compelled to throw this dollar

Down before your
Holiest of altars

I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem a dollar at a time
For one chance, one kiss, one taste of you, my Magdalena

I bear witness to this place, this prayer, so long forgotten
So pure, so rare, to witness such an earthly goddess
That I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem a dollar at a time
For one chance, one kiss, one taste of you, my black Madonna
I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem a dollar at a time
For one taste, one taste, one taste of you, my Magdalena

pretty much influenced by the song/experience/expertease? haha kind of a multitude of pushes/pulls that made this one come together, i just realy like the stylistic tone of the track
also tried to articulate some sort of 'tarr'd and featherd' as the antethisis tot his piece...hmm possibly should have opted for a Narcissus/Naricissi flower too in hind sight, oh well
