Lyrics Copernicus - The Mars Volta

Copernicus

Close the doors
If you want to see her breathing again
Blur the days
Sleeping is just not an option
How come every time I walk you crawl?
When you cut out all the letters that make up this note
I won’t, I won’t give up 'til I find out
'Til I find what happened to you
The solution inhaled from the rag I hold
Holds a maximum vacancy
As I held you in crippled bandages
Don’t you stay up and wait for me
Left dangling in the wind
You’re not there
I poke needles in the neck of a doll
She pokes back
Asking why can’t I just let her out
How come every time I walk you crawl?
When you cut out all the letters that make up this note
And why I won’t give up 'til I find you
The solution inhaled from the rag I hold
Holds a maximum vacancy
As I hold you in crippled bandages
Don’t you stay up and wait for me
Left dangling in the wind
Don’t let the days escape
What I did brings more of them
And we’ll be waiting just for them
Over my dead body
Over the search they lead
And they won’t find them anymore
Don’t let the days escape
What I did brings more of them
And we’ll be waiting just for them
Over my dead body
Over the search they lead
And they won’t find them anymore
Now that I collect
From cells that we once shared
With multi-headed union
Of multiple selves
The solution inhaled from the rag I hold
Holds a maximum vacancy
As I held you in crippled bandages
Don’t you stay up and wait for me
The solution inhaled from the rag I hold
Holds a maximum vacancy
As I hold you in crippled bandages
Don’t you stay up and wait for me
Left dangling in the wind
