The Mars Volta - Cassandra Gemini Lyrics
[a. TARANTISM]You can't bend your crooked arms or fold your punctured proofThe air is growing cold and there's nothing you can doSoon there'll be no gauze, inside the confessionalOnly rows of crows, defrocking every breathAnd one day you'll rememberBehind the melting cones,I said, one day you'll rememberBehind the melting cones,You always had a familyIn the burial of your home.In the burial of your home.Night forever moreNight forever moreNight forever moreNight forever moreNight forever moreAnd I'll peel back all of my skinI'll peel back and let it all runPeel back all of my skinPeel back and let it all runPeel back all of my skin[b. PLANT A NAIL IN THE NAVEL STREAM][Instrumental][c. FAMINEPULSE]Brick by brick, the night eclipsedPricked by the cuticle thorns,Dried the sleep on nursery slitsInto this life I'm bornHavens just a scab away,I'd like to see you after just one tasteSink your teeth into the flesh of midnightNight forever more,Let them see it has begunThe others I've become[d. MULTIPLE SPOUSE WOUNDS]No there's no light,In the darkest of your furthest reachesNo there's no light,In the darkest of your furthest reachesNo there's no light,In the darkest of your furthest reachesNo there's no light,In the darkest of your furthest reachesNo there's no light, no there's no timeYou ain't got nothing, your life was just a lie.No there's no light, no there's no timeYou ain't got nothing, your life was just a lie.[e. SARCOPHAGI]The ocean floor is hidden from your viewing lensA depth perception languished in the nightAll my life, I've been sowing the woundsBut the seeds sprout a lachrymal cloud
