"Scavengers" lyrics
"Scavengers"
Overhead, are those angels or vultures?
Heavy wings and the hum of decay
They seethe and hover
Skew and smother the light of day
Every word is a dissonant whisper
They've got you wearing a smile like a mask
And all you're left with is every question you're scared to ask
I will find you in the black light
Of that cold, dry land
Never mind who held you last night
Come and take my
Come and take my hand
Every tether is tangled and twisted
They slowly sever your heart from the whole
Iron shackles, hungry jackals with eyes like coal
Underfoot, as you steal past the gallows
Brittle branches or pieces of bone?
Feel your chest heave
Are you ready to come back home?
I will find you in the black light
Of that cold, dry land
Never mind who held you last night
Come and take my
Come and take my hand
I will find you in the black light
Of that cold, dry land
Never mind who held you last night
Come and take my
Come and take my hand
I will find you in the black light
Of that cold, dry land
Never mind who held you last night
Come and take my
Come and take my hand
I will find you in the black light
Of that cold, dry land
Never mind who held you last night
Come and take my hand
Come and take my hand

Unwritten Law - "Seein' Red" I'm seeing red
Don't think you'll have to see my face again
Don't have much time for sympathy
'Cause it never happened to me
You're feeling blue now
I think you bit off more than you could chew
And...
Minus The Bear - "Into The Mirror" They got a mirror full of 'caine in the bathroom
'Cause nobody here knows when to stop
For now we're just making out with the door unlocked
Back in the atrium, the music's slowing down
The party's...
Taking Back Sunday - "You Can't Look Back" I was living day to day
As the meetings they would suggest
Sitting pretty having one foot out that door
No, I didn't know how to act
Started running and I didn't look back
Still feel the same way...
Norma Jean - "1,000,000 Watts" Yeah!
If you wanna speak of the devil
You will feel the wave of his or her invented wings
We see the shadow of the axe before
It falls on the necks of the sheep
But if the light has a secret shade...
He Is Legend - "China White III" Our land is so terribly dry
And we see no crop
Without the raindrops
Only the weeds will survive
And keep our seeds from thriving
Will we ever see the spring?
I've got my eye on you
And these eyes...
