Here Come The Vultures

I once had an understanting that

Everything would go my way

But now we've come too far along

For me to hold on to my own beliefs

I'm not in it for the fun of it, but for the pain

I'm not al all interested in your temporary fame

I just want to see you stare

As I lay my soul bare for you to crush upon with heavy feet

I'm in it for the beat

Stranger the faces, stranger the places

They're becoming us, here come the vultures

Here come the vultures, heading over us

I'ts just a black murder of crows across the sky

The moon announces that it will soon be night

The light dies down, the spot goes on

As loveless lips break into song

I once had an understanting that

Everything would go my way

But now we've come too far along

For me to hold on to my own beliefs

I'm not in it for the fun of it, but for the pain

I'm not at all interested in your temporary fame

And the same old song we sing

Here's the ghost we still seem to host

How he's becoming us, here comes the vultures

Here's come the vultures, screaming down at us

They said you can not sing the blues when you're pretty and young

Let me show you a face that fits to neither one

This heart is black like blood that has dried

This song is blue like bruises bright

I once had an understanding that everything would go my way

But now we've come too far along for me to hold on to my own beliefs

I'm not in it for the fun of it, but for the pain

I'm not at all interesed in your temporary fame

And the same old song we sing

Murder of crows across the sky

The moon announces that it will soon be night

Fog closes in and all I see

All empty eyes through silent screams

I once had and understanding that everything would go my way

But now we've come to far along for me to hold on to my own beliefs

I'm in it for the beat
