"Tourniquet Man" lyrics - THE MARS VOLTA

THE MARS VOLTA
"Tourniquet Man"
(Cedric Bixler-Zavala / Omar Lopez)

I've seen the only living traces flicker in the sulfur
And the ones who do believe me, place your favor
Before you lay your question down, there's a matter of the payment
To you, I slipped on crooked sores in conclaves that you bothered

[Chorus:]
Let me be your tourniquet man
Let me keep you as a favor
Let me be your tourniquet man
Let me keep you as a favor

[Bridge:]
When I hear your fingers, they will spell my name
As I trade the faces of the holders

[Chorus:]
Let me be your tourniquet man
Let me keep you as a favor
Let me be your tourniquet man
Let me keep you as a favor

[Outro:]
I can't diminish anymore if I choose to dissolve in you
There's so much we can lose
I can't diminish anymore if I choose to dissolve in you
There's so much we can lose
I can't diminish anymore if I choose to dissolve in you
There's so much we can lose
