The Mars Volta Soothsayer

My love becomes a mange
dyeing autumn in it's leaves
when it broke me in the branch
where my antlers come to feed
and swam a hundred days
in the bosom of this filth
carry on this drought
as i tighten this belt
this deceit has no arms
bended will take what's yours
calling me she's calling me
this it may have come to falter
we have become these pleads

In a field of balding marble
where the medicine awaits
the hourglass pokes at
the ribs of my cage
at half rations im finished
at half rations the minutes
all that happens was given
coil and embrace
this deceit has no arms
bended will take what's yours
calling me she's calling me
this it may have come to falter
we have become these pleads
