The Mars Volta - In Absentia Lyrics
There was once a boyWith knives stuck in his voiceAll he wanted, all he wanted was a little affectionUntil one day he cameTo tempt his mother's tasteAll she wanted, all she wanted was to spread her infectionSpit and spindle we refuseBurning fumes of lucid youth to mendHer broken thoughtsThey've stolen all myBuried in AbsentiaCan you here my vitreous heartBreaking in AbsentiaSmokestacks burnI won't turnI won't ever let you goThey've stolen all my loveYes, they've stolen all my loveHe returns aloneChanges here nor thereDoes he want someDoes he want a little insurrection?Withhold my regretsInsomnatic fateOpt out incisionTear down the reasonI've just gotta get out of hereSpit and spindle we refuseBurning fumes of lucid youth to mendHer restless limbsThey've stolen all my loveBuried in AbsentiaCan you here my vitreous heartBreaking in AbsentiaSmokestacks burnI won't turnI won't ever let you goThey've stolen all my loveYes, they've stolen all my loveTaken by the nightDye the gates remembranceCheck the puzzle, does it fitI am alpha and omegaAnd on the seventh day I risePast the pangs of my resistanceWhen the son gives up his throneWhat becomes of this theftDasehra, make these shackles go awayDasehra, make these shackles go awayDasehra, won't you help me stand my ground if I should fallDasehra, as long as I am injuredDasehra, as long as I rememberDasehra, as long as I am injuredDasehra, as long as I remember
