lyrics

Welcome back to stillness, it's been so long since you've been home
In the world of illusion, you must have felt so alone
A system of false desires and arbitrary fear
Spreading like a virus, their message was loud and clear:

Here on vulture street, we've got all the fun
Go celebrate another late night on the run
Yes here on vulture street, we've got all you need
When silence gets too loud, music's guaranteed

Scavengers roaming through the night
Do they fit your archetype

I know that it's not black or white
But what I see just don't seem right

I thought I had all the answers, but it was all one big defense
Now I wonder if my words make any sense
And every cell in my body feels like it's starting to disappear
When I close my eyes, it's like I'm not even here

But Down on vulture street, they've got all the fun
Go celebrate another late night on the run
Yes up on vulture street, they've got all you need
When silence gets too loud, music's guaranteed

DANCE!!!!

*guitar solo*

Look outside what do you see
Vicarious brutality

Circling round the desert sky
They prey on what feels dead inside

I can still remember all the childish ego games
The quest for absolute control nearly drove me insane
We've got to rid ourselves of the parasite, just how I do not know
Though if you'd rather cover your ears, I know just where you should go

Down on vulture street, you can have your fun
Go celebrate another late night on the run
Yes up on vulture street, you've got all you need
When silence gets too loud music's guaranteed
