Maidez" May days, throwaways, some things here have got to stayA string of pearls, the strangest girl, happy with the western worldPainless Chinese burns, ties me down with daisy chainsDiamonds on her tongue and pleasure cuts and teasingM`aidez - this is no m`aidez, open charms are lost on velvetMaybe this is no m`aidez, m`aidezDead zones and half-way homes, still life lived on mobile phonesBut the girl had wings and precious things under sheets with tangled limbsWide awake at dawn the sun will choose to shine onSilence says it allReaching out and blessingM`aidez - this is no m`aidez, open charms are lost on velvetMaybe this is no m`aidez, m`aidezThe higher we climb the smaller we seem, mad with possibilitiesNo design a zigzag girl, happy with the western world Painless Chinese burns, ties me down with daisy chainsDiamonds on her tongue, pleasure cuts and teasingM`aidez - this is no m`aidez, open charms are lost on velvetMaybe this is no m`aidez, m`aidez

Sometimes I listen to this song when I can't sleep. It's my lullaby.

She later married D'Urberville, but then murdered him, which lead to her own death. Imagine a maypole that people are dancing around that slowly but surely is becoming "tied-up" in strings. To cut these strings allows one to escape, but only for a short time, as the result is a death-penalty. Also, interesting to note, Kelli Ali has a Tiger tattoo (her Chinese zodiac) and uses wings and daisy chains as symbols in her career and has produced a song "Almost Diamonds." Esoteric, I know.

This is a very odd song about China (String of Pearls) slowly manipulating and "tying up" the world by playing the Western game of Capitalism. It's also a song about Tess of the D'Urbervilles, in which Tess is the old world whose name was sold (for capital) to a false D'Urberville. It's unclear as to whether she was forced upon by this person (whom she worked for) or if she allowed herself to be acted upon. She had a child by him, named "Sorrow" who died.

I've been having a lot of issues uploading songs to YT without being restricted by copyright problems. Their are a lot of great songs I feel people are missing out on hearing.
