Lilitu - Even The Vultures Have Moved On lyrics

What did you think you would find? Buried in the dark of the night Holding you close, wasI blind & naive Was it that obvious? Nurture the need to conceal We are going to lose it all. Given the chance to prevail, to rise up But you've crawled into my heart Given the time & the space We could escape the enemy But there's a sense that all hope is gone On this desolate landscape The scavengers scale for prety You offer no reply Someday you will find your way through time Someday you will follow secure in something more Sickly sweet, sinful greed The leeches stake their claim. You offer a kiss & a sigh Go ahead make your bed here of sand & stone Plant your feet in the soil Let the fertile seed sink in The carrion doves, they command us Beyond the dark horizon Among the wastelands Amid the land of broken hearts It's just the a mound of flesh & bones That's all we are The cast of many faces, exalt the process Now it's done Even the vultures have moved on
