Copernicus - The Mars Volta

Close the doors

If you want to see her breathing again

Blur the days

Sleeping is just not an option

How come every time I walk you crawl?

When you cut out all the letters that make up this note

I won’t, I won’t give up 'til I find out

'Til I find what happened to you

The solution inhaled from the rag I hold

Holds a maximum vacancy

As I held you in crippled bandages

Don’t you stay up and wait for me

Left dangling in the wind

You’re not there

I poke needles in the neck of a doll

She pokes back

Asking why can’t I just let her out

How come every time I walk you crawl?

When you cut out all the letters that make up this note

And why I won’t give up 'til I find you

The solution inhaled from the rag I hold

Holds a maximum vacancy

As I hold you in crippled bandages

Don’t you stay up and wait for me

Left dangling in the wind

Don’t let the days escape

What I did brings more of them

And we’ll be waiting just for them

Over my dead body

Over the search they lead

And they won’t find them anymore

Don’t let the days escape

What I did brings more of them

And we’ll be waiting just for them

Over my dead body

Over the search they lead

And they won’t find them anymore

Now that I collect

From cells that we once shared

With multi-headed union

Of multiple selves

The solution inhaled from the rag I hold

Holds a maximum vacancy

As I held you in crippled bandages

Don’t you stay up and wait for me

The solution inhaled from the rag I hold

Holds a maximum vacancy

As I hold you in crippled bandages

Don’t you stay up and wait for me

Left dangling in the wind
