Cover art for Since We've Been Wrong lyrics by Mars Volta, The

Do you remember how you wore that dress It slit my sight beneath the eyelids Do you remember what you said to me What course has given you the right to stray And in your living tomb I'm stuck but safe The clocks are ticking fast with every breath

Since we've been wrong I've been part awake Since we've been wrong You will never ever know me What took you so long I'm not sure all the way But my heart it asks just one more time Are you still a mess

One day a rain will come to wash away The earth that held us was no island I have become ingrown inside this skin I'll find a way out through those eyelids And all the days become a cast away I seem to think I don't belong here

Since we've been wrong I've been part awake Since we've been wrong You will never ever know me What took you so long I'm not sure all the way But my heart it asks just one more time Are you still a mess

I don't belong here I shouldn't stay What falls inside me grows empty The walls between us will never break Just seals it shut It grows empty

Since we've been wrong I've been part awake Since we've been wrong You will never ever know me What took you so long I'm not sure all the way But my heart it asks just one more time Are you still a mess

This version of the lyrics seems to be the most complete. Although to me it sounds like he's saying "One day your reign will come to wash away"
