Frances the Mute Lyrics

[1. In Thirteen Seconds]

It's been thirteen seconds
since you all last said
i've become the apparition
You predicted for my death

You said that flirting
brings you closer to the end
You can bait into the water
but you'll never get the hint

And like a stain of bricks
goes dancing by your head
plucked from an icebox
Grafted on my skin

It's been thirteen seconds
since you all last said
i've become the apparition
You predicted for my death

You said that flirting
brings you closer to the end
You can bait into the water
but you'll never get the hint

And like a stain of bricks
goes dancing by your head
plucked from the icebox
Grafted on my skin

My coat has hid the marks
mink hits the shovel fix
Near the sway of pendulums
boar abrasions and a kiss

She said:
"I'll never let them hurt you,
I'll never let them in"
what you took from me is mine
what is mine i'll never give

[2. Nineteen Sank, While Six Would Swim]

Mascara glass
in the molar weeds
Herash a serpent infancy (Herash a serpent infancy)
His eye patch pussedMars Volta, The - Frances the Mute - http://motolyrics.com/mars-volta-the/frances-the-mute-lyrics.html
in a gap of sand
into his shine a sedative
(into his shine a sedative)
more and more
the dirt collects
you'll hever find her body now
(no, you'll never find her body now)
her closet festered in a secret air
blonde underneath a blackened hair
(blonde underneath a blackened hair)

He never knew the colony
gestated in his bed
"Mingle with the carnivores,
you've something both in common now"
till one day
his wasted breath
swollen throat and karma debt

Set foot inside a parlor
(to find her drunken by receipts)
to find her drunken by receipts
He held her by the ankles
(gutted pair of ankles)
gutted at the nave
yes gutted and depraved
He tied a rope around her legs
and let her hang for seven days

[3. Five Would Grow and One Was Dead]

This never happened
but I saw you leave
and crawl into
a bed of broken windows

This never happened
but I saw you leave
and crawl into
a bed of broken windows

This never happened
but I saw you leave
and crawl into
a bed of broken windows

This never happened....
