Just as he hit the ground
They lowered a tow that
Stuck in his neck to the gills
Fragments of sobriquets
riddle me this
three half eaten corneas
who hit the area
Stalk the ground
Stalk the ground
You should have seen
The curse that flew right by you
Page of concrete
Stained walks crutch in hobbled sway
Autodafe
A capulary hint of red
Only this manupod
Crescent in shape has escaped
The house half the way
Fell empty with teeth
That split both his lips
Mark these words:
One day this chalk outline will circle this city
Was he robbed of the asphalt that cushioned his face
A room colored charlatan
Hid in a safe
Stalk the ground
Stalk the ground
You should have seen
The curse that flew right by you
Page of concrete
Stain walks crutch in hobbled sway
Autodafe
A capulary hint of red
Only this manupod
Crescent in shape
Has escaped
Pull the pins
Save your grace
Mark these words
On his grave...
You should have seen
The curse that flew right by you
Page of concrete
Stain walks crutch in hobbled sway
Autodafe
A capulary hint of red
Everyone knows the last toes are
Always the coldest to go

vocal I absolutely LOVE this song. I've been a fan of The Mars Volta for a long time, but when I saw the video for Televators, I was completely blown away.

vocal there are 3 possible names for the New Song
Never Sleep Alone (lyrics mentioned)
New Juan (written down on their setlist, pronunctiation matters: New One = New Juan
El Viudo (looking at the lyrics)
but it could not be, maybe it wont be included after all in the record, it is way to simple for them

vocal haaaaaa Idioat!!!
TMV is waayyyyy better than Sparta. Pretty much the close minded dumbasses from ATDI that had no talent joined up to make Sparta when Omar and Cedric (the only people in the band WITH talent) left to make the most awesomestttttttt band ever which is now.

vocal This is such a great song! After watching the video, I kinda got a lump in my throat from knowing the fact that TMV dedicated this song to their best friend. Its sad, but such a great song! I tip my hat to TMV!

vocal yea, i also want to know what manupod means.. it's really going to bother me. maybe some kind of tripod but made like a man. anyway, good song besides cicatriz. (in my opinion)
the mars volta leaves a door open always for personal interpretations and this is what i think it might be (because the meaning for manupod is hard to find):
Only this manupod, crescent in shape has escaped
Only this vessel (containing Cerpin Taxt's essence, because when he killed himself he wanted to return to the ESP, as he no longer felt a part of the real world) crescent in desperation and anxiety, has escaped, killing himself.
