Текст (слова) песни: Neil Halstead - Martha`s Mantra (for The Pain)

 
Martha takes the greyhounds 
she says she lost her mantra way down South 
but all that repetition just got her down, got her down 
 
Now she says she won`t do drugs 
because she found something to love 
she cured herself of everything 
there`s nothing left but hair and skin 
 
The only thing I asked her 
was did she have a plaster 
for my pain, oh for the pain 
 
She closed her eyes and took my hand, 
she said "God might have a plan for me" 
 
But making love in Martha`s room 
I felt like I could see through her to him 
 
But heaven is the place that`s open 
when all the bars in town are closed 
heaven is the place, I never find 
 
The only thing I told her 
was that God would have no answer 
for my pain, oh for the pain, oh for the pain 
 
She threw my clothes against the wall 
she said "I`ve met your type before 
don`t go, oh don`t go" 
 
I`ve cured myself of everything 
and now I think I know what makes you tick 
 
She tied my hands about my head 
said a prayer and fetched her wit 
she said the devil hides within my heart 
 
The only thing I asked her 
was did she have a plaster 
for my pain, oh for the pain 
oh for the pain, oh for the pain
