The Mars Volta - Desperate Graves lyrics
[The Mars Volta - Desperate Graves lyrics]
The swarms that I speak are
The wrists I have cut
By flooding the tubs where the
Warmth held her up
The lockets believe that the secret of love
Has caught it's own tail and
It just won't give up
When I breathe, the heavens can't hold me
And I can't believe anymore
The light brings the highest execution
Show me the wings I must cut
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
If I slay your spirit with twin current volts
That weak in your knees in
The pit of my palms
Dressed in the slurs of bovine engines
To feast upon the carcass of your mother
When I breathe, the heavens can't hold me
And I can't believe anymore
The light brings the highest execution
Show me the wings I must cut
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
When I turn the dial and leave the gas on
I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose
These are the splinters made
From a single blade
I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose
I light the key that locks you in
I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose
And you'll wear the burden of all my burns
I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
The wrists I have cut
By flooding the tubs where the
Warmth held her up
The lockets believe that the secret of love
Has caught it's own tail and
It just won't give up
When I breathe, the heavens can't hold me
And I can't believe anymore
The light brings the highest execution
Show me the wings I must cut
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
If I slay your spirit with twin current volts
That weak in your knees in
The pit of my palms
Dressed in the slurs of bovine engines
To feast upon the carcass of your mother
When I breathe, the heavens can't hold me
And I can't believe anymore
The light brings the highest execution
Show me the wings I must cut
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
When I turn the dial and leave the gas on
I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose
These are the splinters made
From a single blade
I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose
I light the key that locks you in
I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose
And you'll wear the burden of all my burns
I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
In your landfill days
These are desperate graves
Give me the altar, red will shine
This pendulum won't wait
