Mars Volta Take The Veil Cerpin Taxt

You must have been phlegmatic in stature

The gates of thanos are a spread eagle wide

You let the shutters make sackcloth and ashes

Out of a blind mans picaresque heart



You take the veil

Youll take the dive

You take the veil



Its not over till the tremulant sings

These ides of march

Are they so make believe

How tempts the revenant

Slice up and not across



You take the veil

Youll take the dive

You take the veil



A mass of gallon sloth

As flys have walls for feet

A rapturous verbatim-someone said but who is to know

And when you find the fringe

The one last hit that spent you

Youll find the ossuary spilling by the day



The iconoclastic had it coming for years

They know the prisons that you have yet to fear

Where thumbs hide inside of sleepingbag mouths

Adlib your memoires by casting a drought



You take the veil

Youll take the dive

You take the veil



A mass of gallon sloth

As flys have walls for feet

A rapturous verbatim-someone said but who is to know

And when you find the fringe

The one last hit that spent you

Youll find the ossuary spilling by the day



Knife me in -hobbeling

Talking in its sleep again

Knife me in-hobbeling

Talking in its sleep again



The one last hit that spent you

And you will find

The greatest fucking lie

Of aneurysm vespers

The ones that pile

Up the greatest fucking lies



Knife me in hobbling

Talking in its sleep again

Knife me in hobbling

Talking in Its sleep again



Virulent hives- of bedpost piles

Virulent hives



Who brought me here

Forsaken,depraved and wrought with fear

Who turned it off

The last thing I remember now

Who brought me here

Forsaken,depraved and wrought with fear

Who turned it off

The last thing I remember now

Who brought me here
