The wound was wet Your skin was salt You felt at fault just under fleeing threat The night we met I've not left yet Caught in this field where I can't forget You begged a kiss I tore away Circling prey, hear my vulture hiss The claws I miss Your beak's sharp bliss Feed on rusted pain, the end of this The death of me The time I haunt My flesh torn gaunt, I won't fly towards free Keep pecking debris The sickness in me I trace it back, to that night's last plea

Vultures
The wound was wet Your skin was salt You felt at fault just under fleeing threat The night we met I've not left yet Caught in this field where I can't forget You begged a kiss I tore away Circling prey, hear my vulture hiss The claws I miss Your beak's sharp bliss Feed on rusted pain, the end of this The death of me The time I haunt My flesh torn gaunt, I won't fly towards free Keep pecking debris The sickness in me I trace it back, to that night's last plea
