Song lyrics
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

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.

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

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.

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!

Man- is a morpheme that means "hand"
-pod is a morpheme that means "foot"

Hand-foot, well this is the mars volta after all.

But nvm that this song is Absolule, it's perfect

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.

yes, i did my research long time ago
