Mars Volta, The - Halo Of Nembutals Lyrics
When the earth let you go
when the verdict is vermin
By the fork in my tongue
when you run out of sermon
is still not enough
What a foul little temptress
your daughter's become
Deviate all by means in name
cause we all crawl in quicksand the same
[x2]
The night I begged you to come to me
the limp in your talk and the scent of your bleed
You covered your wounds in a bandage of sloth
the deeper the slur that rang from her laugh
If something tells me to keep it together
How could you turn your back on me?
I've summoned the stampede of infidel feet
For all I ever wanted is all you ever flaunted
Deviate by all means in name
cause we all crawl in quicksand the same
[x2]
Vanish a fifth dementia
tables of ringworms have hung themselves
Disarray...
Communion shaped...
Serpents raise in prisms til rainbows escape
They sent in the necrophiliacs
Carcinogen tartans that smolder in asp
Disarray...
Communion shaped...
Serpents raise in prisms til rainbows escape
Reading from bottomless palindromes
hear my request to be disowned
Disarray...
Communion shaped...
Serpents raise in prisms til rainbows escape
Deviate by all means in name
cause we all crawl in quicksand the same
[x2]

Mars Volta, The Halo Of Nembutals Comments
Of this I ate
anybody know the chords omar uses for this song, i cant figure them out
They used parts from Jeremy Michael Ward in this track..clearly seems to be written for him
No thanks
All i ever wanted is all you ever flanted
"All I ever wanted is all you ever flaunted!!"
johnnyscifi This is why Cedric is a brilliant lyricist.
This song is a spiral of orgasms to my ears the whole transcending ride through.
Well said.
Im stuck on this song. Dunno why i initially wrote Octahedron off...:p
+newbedfordite
But everybody's playing was minimized for Octahedron, including Omar...
Same thing happened to me with Noctourniquet. Took a few tries and it proves that these guys can't write a bad album, just takes some getting used to sometimes. :)
iiiiii still believe Noctourniquet kinda sucked
like, not musically? musically it was pretty alright, but it just..lacked enthusiasm, much like most "final albums" for bands which break up not long after releasing a record. like, you can tell that they were pretty much done by that point
but i guess that's fitting because by that time the material for Nocturniquet was about as old as Octahedron, and Omar was more interested in getting it out there, doing a limited tour, then shifting focus to Bosnian Rainbows (which I fucking love)
+Kim Alatore
Totally disagree. I don't believe that you can truthfully tell me that Dyslexicon or In Absentia could be bad. There was all kinds of cool stuff on that album.
Kim Alatore
Yea, I got over noctorniquet pretty quickly
Def. This is prob my favorite tune from this album.
Demons ate all my beans and franks.
Underrated song
From an underrated album.
