You'll find the cross only fits,
When your hands and feet are nailed to it.
"Can we get a picture with the pauper,
And another with the prince?"
Ma'am, He's got your daughter wrapped in his fist.
To the boys and girls,
He's alabaster,
But to his brothers, just another bastard.
With a story about a girl; enough to make you sick,
And how she made him king of her gracious hips,
She's found a way to crown his fingertips.
Let's take apart your smile tooth by tooth.
[Chorus]
Let's show them where the bad ones go.
Another case of a sheep bearing a broken nose.
Let's show them where the bad ones go.
Color you criminal, paint black lines on your bones.
Wake all the children from their sleep
He's robbing pillow-cased dreams and selling cheap.
What lives below? He wouldn't know.
So let's tell them where the bad ones go...
[End chorus] [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/e/envy_on_the_coast/vultures.html ]
You curse the tail between your legs;
Blue faced and black jawed,
Your innocent eyes rotted from your bedroom in the night.
A lesson from the learned:
If your skin won't fit,
Don't seal your soul just yet.
If the herd is the temptation that the faithless can't evade,
"We ate all forbidden grapes and retreated to the vineyard,
To the void in which we dwell
With a tortured youth and heartaches we'll sell
I'll be the blood and body if you'll ring that bell."
We'll take apart your smile tooth my tooth.
[Chorus]
You'll go down in history
With notebooks, pens, and melodies.
But you're running from all of us.
You're running from all of us.
You're running from all your love.
Wake all the children from their sleep.
He's robbing pillow-cased dreams and selling cheap.
What lives below? He wouldn't know.
Let's show them where the bad ones go...
Or maybe you are lying and new if what you were talking about .. Youd realize... Its talking about the catholic church, their ministers molesting children ... "youll find the cross it only fits" "we ate all forbidden grapes and retreated to the vineyard" pretty obvious there...
Vultures is preatty much about vultures... Not nessararly meaning that the girl is a bird, but she hurt this guy. When i say hurt she cheated on him and broke him... And preatty much eats/hurts dead things like a vultures, shes a scavenger... I know the guy who wrote this... Its written about me i should know...
