Televators

This is the best song you'll ever hear.

I think the lyrics are incorrect at several points...

I believe Cedric's "Riddle" goes like this:

"Riddle me this: Three half-eaten corneas who hit the areole."

Which, would be a biohazard symbol, three crescents intersecting a circle which looks somewhat like a nipple.

I was listening this (one of my favourite songs) and I found it to be more straightforward than I previously thought. I think it talks about a man who threw himself over a bridge, the bottom of the bridge is perhaps unreachable so they tow him using a harness or something like that.

The song describes the chalk outline drawn by the police who found the body, and describes the forensic report, how his face was crushed against the asphalt (his teeth broke and fell, his jaw was splitted in two) .

Perhaps the part that speaks is an hypotesis on how he killed himself and his last thoughts or even by someone who saw him killing himself: "You should have seen The curse that flew right by you Page of concrete Stain walks crutch in hobbled sway Autodafe A capulary hint of red Everyone knows the last toes are Always the coldest to go"

Refers to the fear of killing himself, the curse is the fear of imagining himself hitting the concrete (or perhaps is the police asking someone that should have seen him as he fell).

"Stain walks crutch in hobbled sway" the fear to death makes him nervous and he can't even walk straight, the "auto da fe" is a leap of faith ( for freeing himself from this world) "capulary hint of red" he imagines the blood spilled against the concrete.

"Everyone knows the last toes are Always the coldest to go"; the moment of the last step into the void becomes eternal, the toes that are still on the bridge/platform feel cold and are harder to move because even this far he's still afraid of death.

It sounds like it is about Julio Venegas and how he killed himself. Seems he jumped off a building, the lines "Wrapped in the asphalt that cushioned his face" and "you should have seen the curse that flew right by you, pages of concrete." They even say on their site that the "story" of the album ends tragically when the person it is about ends up killing himself.

It's an amazing song though, my second favorite on the album.

The animal that falls to its death as sort of a analogy to Julio is called a Tarsier. I don't think anyone pointed that yet. Its a small, endangered, primate found mostly in southeast Asia. They have been known to kill themselves when under heavy stress.

WELL dickhead don't say it's 100% correct if it's not!!!

Yes, I want this song played at my funeral

I do too. I have no idea what it means though.

i doubt these lyrics are correct... i dont hear "a room collared charlotten"... i hear a "rue colored charlatan." we'll see when the album comes out
