The Mars Volta
Zed and Two Naughts
[Verse 1]
I'm not breathin' any better
My lips crack with every grin, in
I hear a scraping plead of branches against my broken window
Why do I let you in?
The silhouette holds me under
Can't poke me with these pins, in
Flotsam drip of nectar, the nexus bean sproutin'
When she says
[Chorus]
Saint Christopher, don't go wanderin'
With no one left to save, 'cause no one's at the wheel
Saint Christopher, don't go wanderin'
With no one left to save, 'cause no one's at the wheel, Saint Christopher
[Verse 2]
Anecdote claps of thunder
From a gash of staple rain, -ain
This bed will never rest you, the answers in the sermon
Why do I let you in?
The skulkin' fits the crownin'
A wasted dusk of kin, in
Repulsion turns to nectar when the pigment leaves the body
When she says
[Chorus]
Saint Christopher, don't go wanderin'
With no one left to save, 'cause no one's at the wheel
Saint Christopher, don't go wanderin'
With no one left to save, 'cause no one's at the wheel, Saint Christopher
[Bridge 1]
First born pray and first born caught
Crawlin' like an animal
Hold your breath, it's feedin' time
In this zed and two naughts
In this zed and two naughts
[Bridge 2]
Painted a fulcrum of caves, piled with dreams of
Phantom masses made of pastures
In labyrinths turnin' cystic maze
I've been hangin' wreaths of cancer
On every door where children sing
Watch it all blister
Watch it all blister
[Chorus]
Saint Christopher, don't go wanderin'
With no one left to save, 'cause no one's at the wheel
Saint Christopher, don't go wanderin'
With no one left to save, 'cause no one's at the wheel
Saint Christopher, don't go wanderin'
With no one left to save, 'cause no one's at the wheel
Saint Christopher, don't go wanderin'
With no one left to save, 'cause no one's at the wheel, Saint Christopher
