shaina taub - marina lyrics

[verse 1]
i was sitting in a hotel room in sydney
when i heard that you had died
your essay was going viral
i cl!cked on it
and reading your words, i cried
i didn’t know you
so why was i so upset?
your photo in that yellow coat
gifted young writer instantly k!lled in the crash
days after your graduation
billions mourned you
brilliance gone in a flash
i didn’t know you
so how i know that i was supposed to?
[chorus 1]
marina
marina
marina
what can i say to you?
marina
marina
marina
you found the word for this feeling

[verse 2]
can’t shake the thought that time to go on to you
you’re the best friend i never knew
but i’m probably just projecting because we look alike
and i was in a car accident too
why did you die?
and why did i get to live?
feels arrogant and weird to admit
but i miss the adventures and arguments we could’ve had
i bet the last thing you’d want is a song about you
to be sentimental or sad
but i didn’t know you
so how would i know what you would’ve wanted?

[chorus 2]
marina
marina
marina
what can i say to you?
marina
marina
marina
you’d found the word for this feeling i have
[bridge]
when a woman approached me after my show
she said ‘we haven’t met before
but i feel my daughter’s spirit in your songs’
i wasn’t sure what to say
i knew right away that she was your mother
how did i know she was your mother?
i don’t believe in that stuff
tried to speak but nothing i could say was enough

[chorus 3]
marina
i’m sorry, marina
what can i say to her?

[verse 3]
she’s ready to embrace her cosmic kinship
but i can’t meet her eye
here was evidence that i was right to grieve you
now, i’m too ashamed to try
i’ll never know you
i’ll never know you
so what do i do with all these feelings?

[outro]
i wish i could talk to you
you’d find the word
