Lyrics of Agadez by The Mars Volta
verse
I should have known you'd always scratch that itch
When you asked me for safe passage
On my shoulders where we slid
verse
And just before you laid dead weight upon its shores
I stung in the face
For that's the nature of my core
chorus
Because
I got distance, don't let it close
Gotta let me know
You just gotta let me know
verse
Because
Forget which way is out now
Gotta let me know
You just gotta let me know
chorus
I'm nowhere near this place you wear
It's unforgivable
It knows that I am visible
Broken mirrors and useless prayer
This lock is healing me
You know you came so willingly
verse
Waiting is a vessel that will take me to
Love, it knows no order
When you taste the truth
chorus
Because
I'm trapped in this cement husk
Gotta let me go
You just gotta let me go
verse
Because
I paid with my own touch now
I brought a little cut
There is blood for every month
verse
In the way you used to call her wicked answers
Time is a plague
There's no time in this place
verse
If you don't
If you don't let me go
Heaven's made a cesspool of us all
chorus
I'm nowhere near this place you wear
It's unforgivable
It knows that I am visible
Broken mirrors and useless prayer
This lock is healing me
I know you came so willingly
verse
Burns 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
verse
And I wrap myself around your buried question
Through the blisters of confinement
And I seek to drain this broken shelter
To refill the pigment case that I have left
verse
Don't stay long
For teeth nurse the first wound
Coats revolve
Hope to gain
verse
What if we find
What tongue ties Double-Windsor?
Invoke to no reply
verse
Those that lie
Have froze at the border
No implies
Close the frame
verse
What if we find
The sunlight draws a curtain?
Invoke to no reply
verse
There's a place where this depth charge ignites
In this place where a soul has no purpose
I can't believe you when your ghost won't let me go
I am the moment you were always speaking of because there's...
verse
No fence will hold the sentient
Culprit fall about it
Say when I can enter them
Culprit fell about it
One fell, the other taste won't lie
Make no doubt about it
outro
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?
How many blame?
How many cave into the pressure I apply?
How many blame?
How many cave into the pressure I apply?
