Vultures And Sharks

(album: Lost Isles - 2015)

They came to conquer
All they wanted was to watch us suffer. Should of known what doesn't kill me, only makes us stronger.
Some say we brought this upon ourselves.
Overlooked the cracks.
Never heard the cries for help. I have no one to blame but myself.
Whispers in the wind, shared all our sins and secrets.
They came to conquer
(They Came to conquer)
Not for glory or a hero's return.
All they want is to watch us crash and burn.
Vultures above and sharks below are waiting for us to fall.
In hope that they'll catch you and ruin it all.
Circling us from head to toe.
We're swimming in the shallows arguing to and fro
There's bad blood in the air.
This killer instinct's the only thing we'll ever share.
We are the creators of our own demise.
They took to the seas.
They took to the skies.
Only had eyes for my prize possessions
Turned all my confessions into lies.
All they want is to watch us crash and burn.
This is what it feels like to be in the jaws of defeat.
One thousand teeth.
Slowly sinking in.
Vultures above and sharks below are waiting for us to fall.
In hope that they'll catch you and ruin it all.
Circling us from head to toe.
We're swimming in the shallows arguing to and fro.
There's bad blood in the air.
This killer instinct's the only thing we'll ever share.
They came to conquer.
All they wanted was to watch us suffer.
Should of known what doesn't kill me only makes us stronger.
