Houses like headstones
All in a row
I walk past them blindly
I don't let it show
Teeth grind behind fake smiles
I swallow your lies
And I watch them die
The vulture's song echoes in my mind
I'm left behind
I built these dreams just to watch them burn
I inhale the ash as I walk a road paved with time
But what was once my hope is now just an echo in my mind
I die inside, I writhe
My life pass me by
Vulture's song in my mind
I'm left behind
The carrion song echoes in my mind
My life passes me by
Inside I writhe
I abhor this life
