THE MARS VOLTA LYRICS - Since We've Been Wrong

"Since We've Been Wrong"



Do you remember how you wore that dress?

It slit my sight beneath the eyelids

Do you remember what you said to me?

What course has given you the right to stray?



And in your living tomb I'm stuck but safe

The clocks are ticking fast with every breath



Since we've been wrong

I've been part awake

Since we've been wrong

You will never, ever know me

What took you so long?

I'm not sure all the way



But my heart, it asks just one more time

Are you still a mess?



One day a rain will come to wash away

The earth that held us was no island

I have become ingrown inside this skin

I'll find a way out through those eyelids



And all the days become a cast away

I seem to think I don't belong here



Since we've been wrong

I've been part awake

Since we've been wrong

you will never, ever know me

What took you so long?

I'm not sure all the way



But my heart, it asks just one more time

Are you still a mess?



I don't belong here, I shouldn't stay

What falls inside me grows empty

The walls between us will never break

Just seal it shut, it grows empty



Since we've been wrong

I've been part awake

Since we've been wrong

you will never, ever know me

What took you so long?

I'm not sure all the way



Since we've been wrong

I've been part awake

Since we've been wrong

You will never, ever know me

What took you so long?

I'm not sure all the way



But my heart, it asks just one more time

Are you still a mess?
