Nicole Atkins - Vultures Lyrics

Careful where you walk
Remain in the light
Watch where death resides
It'll find you from all sides
Vultures circle in
Heavy like a stone
They take all they can get
Until you're dirt and bones

Their bullet's the coin
Their bullet's the bomb
Their bullet's disease
Their calling card, their song
My bullet's to grow
Penniless and old
I take all I can get
Until I'm dirt and bones

Take all they want now they lick from a bone

I can disappear from who I'd like to be
Simply run away, hide behind the sea
Vultures circle in heavy like a stone
They take all they can get
Take all they can get
Take all they can get
Take all they can get until you're dirt and bones

Sometimes the past can weigh on me until I can't breathe
Ahead there is a tiny star that even I can see
