Two vultures come
See the vultures come for me
Fly around the sun
Flying down to wait for me
To sit and stare
Wait 'til I hit the ground
Feel the vultures tear
Hear the vultures tear up flesh
Vulturous on this day
Pick the bone until you break
From above and in between
Pick the bone until you're clean
[SOLO]
Die without soul
I rummaged high and low
Searching for my soul
Searched low and high above
Indeed we hide
Too late, too late again
He takes and strips the soul
But myself I'm flesh and bone again
Vulturous on this day
Pick the bone until you break
From below and in between
Pick the bone until you're clean
Vulturous

Vulturous on this day
Pick the bone until you break
From below and in between
Pick the bone until you're clean
Vulturous
