The Mars Volta - Blank Condolences (Acoustic) [Visualizer]

LYRICS
I heard it moving through tiny
Blades of grass
Nursed in the bosom
Where they circled the drain
They kept unwinding through the portraits eyes
Smother the floor while they writhed
Out here
Buried beneath your tombs
My nails
Scrawl in blood
I will always haunt you
Out here
Beneath the things you do
Exhuming ruins
If you audit all the omens,
broken fevers out of time
Wouldn’t you want to have closure?
When your blindness becomes home
And in that house you know I lost my self
Every time
Frozen in fetal positions in the wake of
Every touch
And I’m waiting
So my question is
How many more are sequestered
Out here
Buried beneath your tombs
My nails
Scrawled in blood,
I will always haunt you
Out here
Beneath the things you do
Exhuming ruins
If you audit all the omens,
Broken fevers out of time
Wouldn’t you want to have closure?
When your blindness becomes home.
She will rise again
Let them dry, real slow, perfectly
No one can
Hear your voice
Here we are
In the ground
Just muffled by deceit
And here we are
Caressing the blank condolences
There you go cowering
Past the pulpit
Every tack
Holds a rope
Scribbled yarn on a board

[@freddyromo7954]

This sounds next level, these songs were made to be acoustic and Cedric’s voice sounds beautiful. Please do an Unplugged tour, I would give anything for that.

[@ShadesWade]

saw them at the NYE show in San Francisco a long time ago. they did an acoustic set and an electric set. once in a lifetime experience

[@slaytronic]

wtf why would you want a mars volta tour unplugged 98% of their songs have tons of electrical manipulation can't even imagine how crap some of the sounds would sound with the drums being played correctly without being driven through a loop and reversed

[@ianbrooken6190]

I would prefer a half acoustic half electric set, but if they do all acoustic I wouldn’t complain. I’m just grateful they are making music again.

[@commongivemeanicknam]

Even the banger tracks would work just perfectly 👍

[@JohnAladeen]

The first few seconds is the same sound from the beginning of "Miranda That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore" such a cool throw back, I'm glad they remember their old gems.

[@phillipmaciejewski9872]

great catch

[@noneofyourbusines244]

it is like they lost the angst (good thing to do as we age) but kept the anxiety and curiosity amongst the deep scars of life.

[@umamifan]

@@noneofyourbusines244 Incredible way of describing it. It definitely shows their evolution as a band.

El nuevo álbum Que Dios te Maldiga mi Corazón será un éxito, lo espero este 21 de abril! Gran canción en versión acústica, da un poco de aires a Asilos Magdalena, o Miranda (en YahooSessions).

[@moguanshan174]

Yes yes yes!!! Necesitaba tanto esta versión. ❤❤❤❤ La voz de Cedric es reconfortante

[@TheBiirdhouse]

just when you think the song cant get better!

[@MindstateCollective]

This is AMAZING... So glad for this sound!! Obviously a wild array of beat timing and percussion but this is coherent and a GROOVE. Sometimes they get lost in the sauce but I love the direction they took here!

[@scottclarke7595]

Fantastic album, amazing song. Would love to hear some more of this album live

[@yupazestru5189]

they finally released the songs without that god damn annoying vocal doubler reverb thingy that hurt my ears and added nothing of substance to the music

Just feels like they're trying hard to not recreate the sound of previous albums and thus ending up with something mild and anonymous. I appreciate the effort of playing/singing off-beat though.

[@cliftonjackson441]

Why that goat got round pupils? Is Goliath back?

[@lexandrosphynx1049]

Goats' pupils dilate in low light conditions, and when this happens, they look more rounded. It's similar to how cats' pupils can be slits in bright light, or round in low light (or when they're in 'hunting mode', lol).

[@jspr79]
