Overcome by your
Moving temple
Overcome by this
Holiest of altars

So pure, so rare, to witness such an earthly goddess
That I've lost my self-control, beyond compelled to throw this dollar

Down before your
Holiest of altars

I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem a dollar at a time
For one chance, one kiss, one taste of you, my Magdalena

I bear witness to this place, this prayer, so long forgotten
So pure, so rare, to witness such an earthly goddess
That I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem a dollar at a time
For one chance, one kiss, one taste of you, my black Madonna
I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem a dollar at a time
For one taste, one taste, one taste of you, my Magdalena

Probably my favourite APC song. I love the way you can find different meanings each time you hear it.

Is this a song about a stripper? Though, it does get to me in a romantic sense

Erotic, well-structured. And a little bit sad.

magdalena is the name of a river and some of the song kinda does make sense with it while other parts do go along with the stripper idea... either way one of the beter songs

I just found this song last night, and I'm completely in love with it. It's so powerful and intense. Just like a song should be.

the slow-moving part is quite erotic, and i love the part where it picks up the pace with the guitar.

i agree with the stripper idea, because of one line "I'd sell my soul, my self-esteem a dollar at a time"... as for the name, Magdalena, it's defined as "A rare beauty" ideally something you may only see once in your lifetime
