Mariana Trench

Lyrics:

Mama said: -I want you to be happy.
Papa said: -Do not cross fine red lines.
A stranger whispered softly in my ear:
-Don't toss your precious pearls in a front of a swine.
A man from church had preached of forgiveness-
Paying debt for my sins..
But then she entered the door and left nothing but wind.

There's no time for contrition,
sharpening sword of revenge.
Give me your hand and I will show you
the depth of Mariana Trench

A friend told live life to your fullest,
A foe told me to count my days.
I found a note written by a stranger, saying:
"Man has to find his own ways".
Servant of Law spoke of compassion,
Sending soldiers to die.
He was looking for signs, but there was nothing but lies.

There's no time for contrition,
Sharpening sword of revenge
Give me your hand and I will show you
the depth of Mariana Trench

Give me your hand and I will show you
the beauty of Mariana Trench
