Vultures

Didn't think you would leave me
Lying here, barely breathing
Bleeding out
You left me for dead

A stomach cut that won't close up
Where you slashed me in the gut
Infected with your poison

And the vultures they circle around
Flying low, their shadows on the ground

Waiting for me to die
You let them eat my body
Pecking my heart out
How long will I be rotting?

Where will you hide
After they find my body?
You ripped my heart out
How long how long how long will I be rotting?

Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah

(How long, how long, how long)

On your throne
Cleaning your knife
Drinking my blood
Like it is red wine
Is it sweet
Or does it burn you deep inside?

And the vultures they surround me now
My screaming is buried in the sound

Waiting for me to die
You let them eat my body
Pecking my heart out
How long will I be rotting?

Where will you hide
After they find my body?
You ripped my heart out
How long how long how long will I be rotting?

Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah

(How long, how long, how long)

Someone will come across my bones
Driving along a dirt road
And the world will know

You waited for me to die
You let them eat my body
You pecked my heart out
You just sat there watching

Where will you hide
After they find my body?
You ripped my heart out
How long how long how long will I be rotting?
