"Year Of The Vulture" lyrics

"Year Of The Vulture"

I ran my head into a brick wall
And I'll swing until it breaks
If this is when the reign falls
I'm dragging you down with me

Silhouettes in the dead of the night
It's the year of the vulture
I can tell from the look in your eyes
It's another disaster

But if they're circling in
Then I'll fight it again

I ran my head into a brick wall
And I'll swing until it breaks
If this is when the reign falls
I'm dragging you down with me
I've always been a long shot
I could crack under the weight
If this is how the king falls
I'm dragging you down with me

I'm broken and battered and scarred
In the grave of my past life
I see the stress fracture start
On the edge of a jackknife

But if I'm deep in the water
Then I'm pulling you under

I ran my head into a brick wall
And I'll swing until it breaks
If this is when the reign falls
I'm dragging you down with me
I've always been a long shot
I could crack under the weight
If this is how the king falls
I'm dragging you down with me

You down with me
