Mars Volta - Tetragrammaton lyrics
rate meTell me it's over<br />
Rusbel awaits<br />
I've been to the surface<br />
And nothing is there<br />
Eyelids sank muffled<br />
In the nerve aura sound<br />
But when she wakes<br />
Will she still be with us<br />
<br />
My heart is darkclots<br />
Leap year is late<br />
How did you get here<br />
Ask all but the bait<br />
From a christ what went hissing<br />
Constricting his cells<br />
We summon by candle by book and by bell<br />
<br />
Glossolalia coats my skin<br />
Glycrine and turbulence<br />
Stuffed the voice inside of God<br />
Mirrors to the animals<br />
<br />
The sermon goes mourning<br />
Pricking it's hail<br />
Slothful the child<br />
That preys on the seed<br />
Shall behead the drought<br />
Wound under sleeves<br />
I hope you have room<br />
In a thicket of vines<br />
<br />
Give me a moment<br />
To clean what you've stole<br />
The streets will hang high<br />
Stretch ribs and let taste<br />
We'll cover the smell with silver nitrate<br />
Mending the cuts of your prosthetic faith<br />
<br />
Glossolalia coats my skin<br />
Glycrine and turbulence<br />
Stuffed the voice inside of God<br />
Mirrors to the animals<br />
<br />
Then so long<br />
Dear mnemonic<br />
Assume the form<br />
You've given me and I'll split<br />
<br />
Now hold on<br />
Just hold my hand<br />
Say that they made you<br />
But you brought your own leash<br />
Tell me no more no<br />
Say I'm the last one<br />
Outside<br />
By the drift<br />
You read my will<br />
Of thread and itch<br />
Failure to comply<br />
As failure to decease<br />
And still you won't know everything<br />
I've built the fall<br />
<br />
Sulking drained the fall of my pale will<br />
Swollen by your steps<br />
Licking the ankles of blasphemer guilts<br />
It only meant to drape a plastic<br />
Over the stuck pig scalp of head<br />
To cover the sock where the flatline had spread<br />
The kiosk in my temporal lobe<br />
Is shaped like rosalyn carter<br />
She says my map is home again<br />
But torn face down<br />
I have only but a million blemishes<br />
To tell you all about<br />
In the end they just gagged me<br />
To make him come out<br />
<br />
Gas me the hind<br />
Of your five legged snare<br />
Tooth picks the eye<br />
But nothings there<br />
Down drags your waltz<br />
Cross the alter top<br />
From a sleep that<br />
Deprevation knew<br />
Trespass your form<br />
I'm void of dusk<br />
I'd ask to look<br />
But the mask stays on<br />
You'll levitate<br />
Teutonic prayer<br />
Cruelity is the wrath<br />
Of my instrument<br />
<br />
In the end they just gagged me<br />
To make him come out<br />
<br />
You locked the cuffs<br />
Arsenic erupts<br />
Will you drink the shadow<br />
Of my red hair<br />
<br />
You and your false<br />
Witness to God<br />
You've one in the chamber<br />
But your finger got stuck<br />
<br />
Let slip the sound<br />
Of a cry for help<br />
But all was lost<br />
On the night you walked<br />
<br />
Palm speak through eyes<br />
Serve your memory lost<br />
I contaminate with insignias<br />
<br />
In the end they just gagged me<br />
To make him come out<br />
<br />
Glossolalia coats my skin<br />
Glycerine and turbulence<br />
Stuffed the voice inside of God<br />
Mirrors to the animals<br />
<br />
Wait till I get my hands on you<br />
I won't forget a face that lift me<br />
Just you wait<br />
Till I get my hands on you<br />
I can't forget you<br />
You won't remember<br />
<br />
Unwrap my corpse<br />
And let it thaw<br />
In the eye of the needle<br />
I can't get out<br />
<br />
They'll check my wrist<br />
I'll faint a pulse<br />
I'm not the human<br />
You thought I was<br />
<br />
If you pet the night<br />
Sixth pentacle dice<br />
If you roll the seven<br />
St. Michael dies<br />
<br />
They'll be no ransom<br />
Don't shut my mouth<br />
I scald the answer
