Mars Volta, The - Askepios Lyrics






I'll be there waiting with a hook in your neck
Is the contact you've made deficient?
And your hand will break if you touch this fence
Please them 'til they're blind with cleft lens

What have you brought for my appetite?
What have you brought for my appetite?

I'll never perish with the albino horns of a thousand young born
Will you drink from the depths of my sea?
And your hand will break if you touch this fence
Please them 'til they're blind with cleft lens

What have you brought for my appetite?
What have you brought for my appetite?

I might not make it back again
The vervain is on the rise
Maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe
They've got to open wide
Got to open wide
Might of a serpent swallowing tail
Cycle recycled and I'm next to nothing

Help me come alive
[x4]

Place your ring finger on this debt
Am I living or am I dead?
Do what thou will tell them what I've found
The steps of a ladder from a diamondback's mouth

Help me come alive
[x6]

I ain't gonna hold my breath
[x2]

  24. A.... ....

    I always thought that the lyrics were "Please them 'til they're blind with pleasure"

    I never knew music trying to be so different could be so fucking boring.

    p.... ....

    Well.. You're in the wrong place my friend.

  39. D.... ....

    You tube as god is fucked.  This advertising shit is crap.  Fuck you you tube.

  40. E.... ....

    woaaah such a high quality music video :OOOO

  41. T.... H....

    This proves one thing: even the most fucked up, out of this world people all agree with the general public on the idea that Bush sucks dick.

  42. p.... ....

    "Do what thou wilt, tell you what I've found!!!"

    p.... ....

    Is Mars votlie really in the illuminati D:

    p.... ....

    "Do what thou wilt" has nothing to do with the fucking illuminati you dipshit. It's a quote from Aleister Crowley.

  43. P.... S....

    "The might of a serpent swallowing tail. Cycle recycled and I'm next to nothing!"

  44. V.... ....

    i love this video man it reminds me of the times i was little watching adult swim shows

  45. H.... L....

    Festa da firma.

  46. A.... B....

    I've always listened to this without a video...this makes me want to drink

  47. M.... A....

    I wish I were on that quinceañera party

    M.... A....

    for reals though

  48. G.... ....

    So was Marcel baked during all these videos?

  49. J.... P....

    Is that Matt Embree from RX Bandits? Anyone know?

  50. i.... ....

    2 mex!

  51. T.... N....

    again, just like in The Sentimental Engine Slayer >.o

  52. T.... H....

    The Aberlinkula dog!

  53. K.... V....

    looks it

  54. H.... ....

    you should watch the sentimental engine slayer and see what omar does to his brother in that movie... it's pretty good movie

  55. W.... ....

    Is the Jesus lookin sob Matt Embree?

  56. l.... (....

    Obigaciones contractuales

  57. I.... E....

    3:52, did Omar just kissed his brother on the lips!?

  58. M.... ....

    Very underrated song from The Mars Volta. I always thought the girl handing Marcel the gun at 4:34 was the hottest one in the video.

  59. V.... ....

    maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe

  60. P.... J....

    thanks for the info man! i didnt know that!

  61. L.... ....

    Omar has stated in interviews that he is very close to his family. He was raised that way. He kisses his family on the lips, male or female. Its part of his culture. Cant hate on that.

  62. P.... J....

    03:50 wtf omaar!

  63. f.... ....

    Yes, ur right, im sorry, my bad. guess it wouldnt have seemed so bad if he wasnt wearing that dress.

  64. a.... ....

    My ever-loving reaction to this video is 0:33-0:40.

  65. J.... G....

    they're personalities seem just like their music. loud, consistent and yet evolving, and you never know what the fuck they are thinking, you just know it's badass.

  66. A.... S....

    pretty sure

  67. f.... ....

    thought it was a volcano on mars...


  68. f.... ....

    you sure??

  69. m.... ....

    thats seems like a ice bday party

  70. L.... C....

    Marcel wearing a dress... :megusta:

  71. T.... ....

    The weird part of youtube has never been this fun...

  72. A.... S....

    @yayolann that's his brother

  73. l.... ....

    you know, when you consider the general batshit insanity of the song itself the video becomes a lot less surprising. And what the album is about, Goliath and the shit with the ouija board.

  74. y.... ....

    omG! he kiss that boy! xD

  75. J.... ....

    THOMAS!!!WHYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?!?!?

  76. S.... A....

  82. t.... ....

    @XhibiChise tenias razón xD este vídeo es muy bueno xD

  83. S.... ....

    The darkest salsa ever made.

  84. c.... ....

    I don't like this video, samurai jack video is better.

  85. a.... ....

    @xIAMDAVEx Look; you have...a funny video, awesome music and a generally kickass band. Now you want HD film?! You can't have it all honey!

  86. x.... ....

    why are all their videos crap quality? use an HD camera please

  87. 5.... ....

  91. t.... ....

    Omar kisses the dude in the dress. Hmm

  92. J.... S....

    That is a trip

  93. I.... W....

    Yeah they did drugs during production.

  94. A.... H....
