O Maria Lyrics

Cover art for O Maria lyrics by Beck

I think it's about just looking for cheap thrills but finding none, then just bumming around waiting for Death to come slowly. People get so desperate for company and escape from loneliness and idleness that they'd be willing to give themselves up to Death's loving arms. They just wanna be carefree and have fun...but when they can't find happiness they're just careless and wax their time with alcohol and circuses.
