Palm Full Of Crux

(альбом: The Mars Volta - 2022)

Now that you're gone
Nothing but waves came crashing against us
I saw you there
Waiting in that same corner room

As far as I could tell
It was you waving in that window
As far as I can tell
It's me waving back at you

And when that crown
It came just to get you
All those pins in your map told me I should have known

It's hard for me to tell
Was that you in the frosted window?
Can't you see my shadow on the steps below?

Please belong
I don't remember how, don't remember when
Please belong
I don't remember how, can't remember when

Is it you outside?
Holding depth, charge truth
In a broken way
'Til we meet again, always

Gonna leave the dead
Gonna leave the dead
Gonna leave the dead
Gonna leave the dead

When you carved out your name
On the arms of everyone asking
I can still hear your footsteps
Getting closer every day

As far as I can tell
You're still playing in empty mansions
Up, down the winding stairs
I call out, asking "Is that you?"

Please belong
It happened yesterday, it's like it happened yesterday
Please be wrong
Does it have to be your name, have to be your name?

Is it you outside?
Holding depth, charge truth
In a broken way
'Til we meet again, 'til we meet

Always, always, always, always
