"Vultures (Mr. Bill Remix)" lyrics - NORTHLANE
[Chorus:]
Set fire to an icon
Set fire to the lie
Set fire, bid farewell
I'll be a martyr to myself
Where do I go
If every turn there's a vulture waiting
To pick at my bones
And bury me alive?
My lungs are whitewashed
A million thoughts on the tip of my tongue
I can't keep hiding
My guts in tight knots
Abandon who I've become
Or fight for what's inside me?
[Chorus:]
Set fire to an icon
Set fire to the lie
Set fire, bid farewell
I'll be a martyr to myself
Where do I go
If every turn there's a vulture waiting
To pick at my bones
And bury me alive?
[Post-Chorus:]
It's me against the world
[Bridge:]
I feel their claws sinking in
As the life spirals out from my inner self
Let the earth where I carved my name burn
[Bridge:]
Burn
[Chorus:]
Set fire to an icon
Set fire to the lie
Set fire, bid farewell
I'll be a martyr to myself
Where do I go
If every turn there's a vulture waiting
To pick at my bones
And bury me alive?
[Outro:]
It's me against the world
It's me against the world
