Hung in a blinding light Held in a bitter gaze, feeling the crowd melt away Up in the desert air Miles above the world, and the daggers that it holds We'll stand and not depart Vultures are circling our hearts They'll leave just skin and bones Vultures shall tear us apart Jealousy, it creeps Poisoning our words, leaving a bitter taste on our Lips, tongues and teeth Like a film of dust, it takes the sweetness from our hearts And if you're cut but there's no blood, no blood But it hurts, then it's true love, true We're hiding in open sight Held under lock and key, feelin' the hours tick away Up in the atmosphere A feeling blood'll boil, letting our bodies drift away We'll stand and not depart Vultures are circling our hearts They'll leave just skin and bones Vultures shall tear us apart And if you're cut but there's no blood, no blood But it hurts, then it's true love, true We'll stand and not depart Vultures are circling our hearts They'll leave just skin and bones Vultures shall tear us apart
