Buzzards

I saw
I came
I left
You stayed

And as I was driving home
I saw a bird on the road
There's buzzards overhead
As vultures gather 'round the dead

I am a deer in the headlights
You are a driver
I'm in your sights

Now I lay on the white lines
And my antlers are memorialized
On a wall
And a hunter didn't even cause my fall

Is it a trick of the light?
Some ruse in the night?
I'll close my eyes
Cause it's suspiciously bright
In this hallway

I'm not dead, I don't think
I just need a drink
I'm not gone
I'm still here
Or is that unclear?

I blink (I blink)
On the highway (highway)
And suddenly (suddenly, suddenly, suddenly)
I've lost my way
I saw (I saw)
I came (I came)
I left (I left)
You stayed

As I was driving home
I saw some birds on the road
Buzzards overhead
Vultures 'round the dead

I smell the brakes
I hope it rains
Tomorrow maybe
I'll come back and powerwash the street
Cause it still
Feels to me
Like I'm the one bleeding
I'm the one leaving

Buzzards overhead
Preying for the dead
