"Vulture" lyrics

Dazzle with your crown
Gaslamp lit by your renown
So crude, our musings bound
Lust and bones in soiled gowns

We worship your name
Take feed from our veins
A hive for your reign
Score our souls again

Nail your child to your gospel
Watch it burn
Tell them all who they are
You paint the earth in black and white
And eat their praise
Hallelujah

Holy be thy words
Dangling swords above the herd

We worship your name
Take feed from our veins
A hive for your reign
Extort our loyalty

Nail your child to your gospel
Watch it burn
Tell them all who they are
You paint the earth in black and white
And eat their praise
Hallelujah

Mercy by your righteous hand
Bestow your grace
Tell them all how to think
So stupid, burdened by their senses
Unlike you
Hallelujah

Justice in the throes
After all, God only knows

Bathe my whole entire world
In pious flames
Show me you're in control
The vengeance flooding from your thin skin
Heeds my prayers
Hallelujah

If I abandon dignity and bend my knees
Could I still die in peace?
I'm just so fucking tired
You've taken everything
And still you think that you deserve our love
So ego goes

Fuck your hallelujah

You'll prove in time you're just a vulture in savior's robes
