The Mars Volta - Agadez lyrics

I should have known you'd
Always scratch that itch
When you asked me for safe passage
On my shoulders where we slid
And just before you laid dead
Weight upon it's shores
I stung you in the face
But that's the nature of my core
Because I got distance, don't let it close
Gotta let me know
You've just got to let me know
Because forget which way is out now
Gotta let me know
You've just gotta let me know

I'm nowhere near this place you wear
It's unforgivable, it knows that I am visible
I'm broken mirrors and useless prayer
This lock is healing me
You know you came so willingly



Waiting is a vessel that will take me to
Love, it knows no order when
You taste the truth
Because I'm trapped in this cement husk
Gotta let me go, you've just gotta let me go
Because I paid with my own touch now
I brought a little cut
There is blood for every month

In the way you used to
Call her wicked answers time is a plague
There's no time in this place
If you don't, if you don't let me go
Heaven's made a cesspool of us all

I'm nowhere near this place you wear
It's unforgivable, it knows that I am visible
I'm broken mirrors and useless prayer
This lock is healing me
You know you came so willingly
Burn a kiss with serpent scales
There is no miracle, I lost your miracle
I'm nowhere near this place you wear
It's unforgivable, it knows that I am visible

I wrap myself around your buried question
Through the blisters of confinement
I seek to drain this broken shelter
To refill the pigment case that I have left

Don't stay long for teeth
Nurse the first wound
Coats revolve, hope to gain
What if we find what
Tongue ties double windsor?
Invoke to no reply
Those that lie have froze at the border
No implies close the frame what if we find
The sunlight draws a curtain?
Invoke to no reply

There's a place where this
Depth charge ignites
In this place where the soul has no purpose
I can't believe you when your
Thirst won't let me go
I am the moment you were
Always speaking of because there's

No fence will hold the sentient
Culprit fall about it
Say when I can enter them
Culprit fall about it
One fell, the other taste won't lie
Make no doubt about it

How many blame
How many cave into the pressure I apply?
How many blame
How many cave into the pressure I apply?
(If you take this breath of mine)
How many blame
How many cave into the pressure I apply?
(If you take this breath of mine)
How many blame
How many cave into the pressure I apply?
(If you take this breath of mine)
How many blame
How many cave into the pressure I apply?
(If you take this breath of mine)
