The Mars Volta – Televators Lyrics 21 years ago
I'm sorry, but the lyrics on here as of this moment are /way/ off to me. I'm going to post here how I feel they are from both sound and meaning.

just as he hit the ground
they lowered a tow that
stuck in his neck to the gills
fragments of sobriquets
riddle me this
three half eaten corneas
who in the area
stalk the ground
stalk the ground

you should have seen
the curse that flew right by you
page of concrete
stained walks crutch in hobbled sway
auto-da-fe
a capillary hint of red
only this manupod crescent in shape has escaped

the house half the way
fell empty with teeth that
split both his lips
mark these words
one day this chalk outline
will circle this city
was he robbed of the asphalt
that cushioned his face
a room colored charlatan hid in a safe
stalk the ground
stalk the ground

you should have seen
the curse that flew right by you
page of concrete
stained walks crutch in hobbled sway
auto-da-fe
a capillary hint of red
only this manupod crescent in shape has escaped

pull the pins
save your grace
mark these words
on his grave
pull the pins
save your grace
mark these words
on his grave
pull the pins
save your grace
markt hese words
on his grave

you should have seen
the curset that flew right by you
page of concrete
stained walks crutch in hobbled sway
auto-da-fe
a capillary hint of red

everyone knows the last toes are always the coldest to go


There are a few things I'm unsure on. Whether its "who in" or "who hit" and "the area" or "the aureole" I'm also not sure whether its "pull the pins" or "pull the pills" I'm leaning towards "pins" for the second one. I remember seeing Theftoffire's version and this seems a lot like his.

As for the meaning, there is little I have to say that hasn't been said already. mascaraxglass, I believe everything you said is correct. exsanguinate, if what I have is correct, I believe that "stained walks crutch in hobbled sway" refer to the walks, or roads, below the highway overpass he jumped from that were stained from all the trash and litter. This line, I believe, speaks of when Julio or Cerpin actually hit as Julio had a sort of hobbled limp.

The Mars Volta – This Apparatus Must Be Unearthed Lyrics 21 years ago
To me, it seems that this is the song where Cerpin or Julio wakes up from the coma and starts feeling depressed and wanting to commit suicide. Then, in Televators, he finally does it by jumping off of a bridge or highway. If we go with Moatilliatta being death, then he's wondering if death has come or not. He also wants death to come to "mend all the blame."

Nickelback – Feelin' Way Too Damn Good Lyrics 21 years ago
I forgot to say that he's saying something must go wrong because something this good has never happened to him before and it's surreal.

Nickelback – Feelin' Way Too Damn Good Lyrics 21 years ago
This song is about how the singer, one man who never seemed to have good luck with women, finally met someone whom he loves with a burning passion. Sadly, they live far apart. mb20rox111, "this time it's like the two of us should probably start to fight" is taking something out of context. If you listen to the way he sings along with the lyrics, you'll notice that the whole sentence is, "this time it's like the two of us should probably start to fight 'cause something's gotta go wrong 'cause I'm feelin' way too damn good." If we also look, we see "Everytime I turn around, I fall in love and fall my heart face down."

The Mars Volta – Cygnus...Vismund Cygnus Lyrics 21 years ago
I think it important to recognize the fact that this song is comprised of four movements. The first, Sarcophagi, ends after the line "A lachrymal cloud." I believe Umbilical Syllables ends after "Bring me, bring me this plague." I'm not sure, but I think the last movement, Con Safo, doesn't have any lyrics, thus making the lyrics from "Bring me, bring me this plague" until the end a part of Facilis Descenus Averni. The third movement's name seems Latin to me; am I alone?

Question: How does such a cliched rant have so many comments on it?
