Omar Rodríguez-López - Askepios lyrics

I'll be there waiting With the hook in your neck as the contact you've made Deficient And your hand will break If you touch this fence Please them 'til they're blind with cleft lens What have you brought for my appetite? What have you brought for my appetite? I'll never perish With the albino horns of a thousand young born Will you drink from the depths of my sea? And your hand will break If you touch this fence Please them till they're blind with cleft lens What have you brought for my appetite? What have you brought for my appetite? I might not make it back again The vervain is on the rise Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe Got to open wide Got to open wide Might of a serpent swallowing tail Cycle recycled and I'm next to nothing I said Help me come alive... Place your ring finger on this debt Am I living or am I dead? Do what thou wilt, tell them what I've found The steps of a ladder from a diamondback's mouth I said Help me come alive... I ain't gonna hold my breath I ain't gonna hold my breath
