These Vultures Beget Eagles
These Vultures Beget Eagles
Verse 1
old man
old man
*who are you
as i watch you slowly
*carefully research
living
breathing
*soon to be
that your life is leaving
Chorus
pale blue
look at me
i'll stare at you
vultures
are scavenging the remains
underneath the oak
Verse 2
young man
young man
calling the police
i stand on the
precipice
deliberating
guilty
pointing
all of these
fingers from anonymity
Chorus
pale blue
look at me
i'll stare at you
vultures
are scavenging the remains
underneath the oak
Bridge 3
many crimes go unnoticed
I am the one to pull off the perfect murder
but I was consumed by the monster I made
irony strikes
at this moment
in the pitch it seems his final rest
came in his usual resting place
(guitar solo)
who was at the door?
my soul screams to know
my heart beats with never a respite
who was standing there?
they screamed with purest hate
if only i could've seen their face
pale blue
look at me
i'll stare at you
vultures
are scavenging the remains
underneath the oak
i am
the villain
i can tell you this with
certainty
that what happened to him
shall happen to me
