My Name is Mary

Story Behind The Song

I once wrote a tragic story about a car crash where the girlfriend comes to the scene only to find her dying boyfriend calling out someone else's name.People cried and said it was too sad. So I lightened it up a bit. Now people laugh and tell me to play it again. Tory Zwanzig does a fantastic job on vocals

Lyrics

Peggy Sue, is that you?/ I just wrecked my BMW/ There's gravel in my eyes and I can't feel my leg./ "Jonnie I'm here" I said through the smoke/ Taste of mangled metal in my throat/ I grabbed his hand as his final words came crashing down on me/Peggy Sue, it's always been you, without your love I don't know what I'd do/ Remember the prom, the carnival too, forgive me Peggy Sue/ "Take it easy Johnnie" as I held back the tears/ We've lived a lifetime these last three years/ I grabbed a blanket for his head/ I took his locket, and this is what I said/ MY NAME IS MARY/ Who IS PEGGY SUE? MY NAME IS MARY/ MY HEART IS BROKE IN TWO/ MY NAME IS MARY/ OH WHAT CAN I DO? MY NAME IS MARY MARY MARY! The ambulance came, it was just before the dawn/ Through the wind I heard our favorite Beatles song/ I went home, with sirens in my head/ Closed the drapes to hide the flashing lights of red/ His words still haunt me as I head into our room/ reach for his pillow, and I smell a strange perfume/ Open Johnies locket I'm still clutching in my hand, it reads 'P.S. I Love You" Now I understand. MY NAME IS MARY! verse 3!
