Cicatriz ESP Lyrics

Do you recall its name?
As it suggested beck and call
This face and heel
Will drag your halo through the mud
Ash of Pompeii
Erupting in a statue's dust
Shrouded in veils
Because these handcuffs hurt too much

Still scalping these ticketless applause
And when they drag the lake there's nothing left at all

Sutured contusion
Beyond the anthills of the dawning of this plague
Said I've lost my way
Even if this cul-de-sac would pay
To reach inside a vault
Whatever be the cost
Sterling clear blackened ice
And when they drag the lake there's nothing left at all

I defected
I defected
I defected
I defected

Sutured contusion
Beyond the anthills of the dawning of this plague
Said I've lost my way
Even if this cul-de-sac did pay
To reach inside a vault
Whatever be the cost
Sterling clear blackened ice
And when they drag the lake there's nothing left at all

I defected
I defected
I defected
I defected

Beyond the anthills of the dawning of this plague
Said I've lost my way
Even if this cul-de-sac did pay
Beyond the anthills of
Beyond the anthills of
Said "I've lost my way" yeah
Even if you
Even if you
Even if you reach inside a vault
Whatever be the cost
Sterling clear blackened ice
Whoa they drag the lake there's nothing left at all

I've defected (Drag your vessel, punch your clock in)
I've defected (Drag your vessel, punch your clock in)
I've defected (Drag your vessel, punch your clock in)
I've defected (Drag your vessel, punch your clock in)

n Cicatriz ESP Cerpin awakes yet again to find that he has been transported to a barren desert named Sowvietna. All his memories have been erased.

As well as transported, Cerpin finds that he has been transformed into something else. In his new form, he speaks in sounds of click and grunts, and he finds that solid objects (his hands in this case) can pass through his body.

He is no longer Cerpin taxt, but has become Clavietika Tresojos, and he is now a she.

to sum up this song in short.

Cerpin taxt finds himself in another coma dream, but he's not cerpin taxt he is a monster called clavietika tresojos in the desert going around from town to town killing anything in her path, he is no longer a he. in the end one town ends up tricking him and capturing him and end up burning him and celebrating in her ashes. And turns back into cerpin taxt. Great Song

Dude, what the fuck.

Dude, what the fuck.

Still Scalpeing these ticketless applause And when they drag the lake there is nothing left at all

cicatriz is spanish for "scar" and I think I found out what the ??? word is. I think its "collected" so there it is.

well this song has a powerful message and i think tristax is somewhat on the money that the stitches broke up like the close bond atdi had and now look at sparta now. but the band still visits with each other but the conversation of each others band is never mentioned. they are still best of friends and have no hatred or dislike towards each other. atdi is still my favorite band but i guess sparta and the mars volta will have to do cuase its the closest thing ive not to them! :)

Cover art for Cicatriz ESP lyrics by Mars Volta, The

dare i say, their full-album is gonna be a concept album? its shaping up to be that way. im catching links between each song on the EP. Tremulant = trembling... who knows, sounds like there's some sort-of paranoia in these songs.

Cover art for Cicatriz ESP lyrics by Mars Volta, The

There's some corrections.

shrouded in viels, because his handcuffs hurt too much Scalpels front digging last recall When they drained the lake there's nothing left at all.

I think that's how it goes. Or at least, that's how it sounds to me.

Cover art for Cicatriz ESP lyrics by Mars Volta, The

This song has so many real emotions. The high riffs are awesome with Cedric's sexy voice- It's awesome! The cul-de-sac of pain is really strong. ATDI is my fav too, too bad about them, but TMV and Sparta are still cool.
