This is one place I think that most people would understand this song. Sometimes I cry when I listen to this song. If you have not heard it, you need it for therapy, because you can't run from feelings, you can only face them.. I recognize that not many of us are probably mind readers or of that sort but the concept is the same, we are cast from our families as a bad fruit is cleared from a basket (NOT IN MY HOUSE THEY SIT FOR WEEKS), all for the sake of some scriptures that may or may not have been written by someone a long time ago. Oingo Boing----- Oh mary wasn’t happy with the life that she led She was a simple girl without much to say So one day she just upped and left her dreary home And she left all her friends behind to wander all alone And at first she was afraid, she was so far away From her home but slowly she got to like it anyway Oh mary won’t you please come... Well in time she found that The mountain that she had been taught Her whole life, that she must avoid And though at first it hurt, and no one could comfort her She finally came to appreciate it And she like it, she like it - oh wasn’t she surprised And though still alone, she grew so much inside Oh mary won’t you please come... And after a time, she became so sublime She could look in peoples eyes and read their minds Though her hands would sometimes bleed and occasionally She would long for her past and the memories they bring She decided to return to her old home town And her heart was burning with all the things she found Oh mary won’t you please come... So, mary came back and at first no one recognized her face And her friends were all a little bit afraid When they heard what she had to say They all slowly backed away And her family took her aside and put their arms around her They said mary won’t you please come back to us now There is still time to repent for all your sins And mary started to cry when she realized That she’d never come home again in her life Oh mary won’t you please come Mary won’t you please come home...
