Circling Vultures

We are runaways, we're on the escape

we don't give a damn about the things that you say.

we've all risked a lot, we've risked our lives and our loves

Sing your children lullabies because there's gonna be a flood.

Recently I have foreseen a vision of a world

Where freedom is a dirty word and constitutions burn

if this is all a test, I hope God's up there having fun

Sing your children lullabies because there's gonna be a flood.

(Rain Rain Down. Rain Rain Down.)

So take to the highest roof top, save only what you can

if the doors break in, then all our sins will be washed away again.

(Rain Rain Down. Rain Rain Down.)

After all, they think we're better for this.

Maybe tomorrow we can burn the forests down?

Things have always been this way and I believe

That we will bring us to our knees.

Of all the dreams you ever had when you were just a kid

In anywhere but nightmares did things ever end like this?

If I could have one wish, I'd tear the stars out of the sky

To re-ignite our hearts and see the fire in our eyes

There's a storm on the horizon, I can feel it in my bones

Sing your children lullabies so they won't feel so alone

(Rain Rain Down. Rain Rain Down.)

After all, they think we're better for this.

Maybe tomorrow we can burn the forests down?

If we carry on this way then I believe

That we will bring us to our knees.

We are nothing but a cancer on this earth

Abandoned here all alone to define our worth

If it exists at all, I don't know why I'm here

The only thing that matters now are those that I hold dear.

We fell in love with a dying culture like circling vultures

We fell in love with the lies.

If you believe that a life worth living is more than make believe

The war is far from lost.

We have to seek the truth at any cost.
