The Injured List - Circles In The Sky

Her stare has gotten colder
As she has gotten older
Yeah, she walks a little slower in the snow
Following footsteps that
Tell her where to go
With her gaze hanging down low
She never knows what's going on above her head
Are the vultures making circles in the sky
Can you ask yourself if you're ready to die today
And she said

Why don't we leave
Because we can't go back to how things used to be
When we were young and so care-free
So let's find a place where we'll be happy
And his tongue is getting sharper
And it's starting to get harder
Not to take out all his misery on everyone around him
And he fears that he is snapping
All his fingers have been cracking
Cause he's scared of pushing everyone away
And doesn't know what he'd do without them
Are the vultures flying lower
Are you getting any closer to your dream
Of falling asleep in peace
He says

Why don't we leave
Because we can't go back to how things used to be
When we were young and so care-free
So let's find a place where we'll be happy
And we'll never have to sleep
And we'll never have to worry
If we're headed in the right direction
Cause we'll be right where we want to be
And we'll have everything we ever dreamed of having
It'll be you and me vs. anything that's ever tried to stop us
Can we leave

Because we can't go back to how things used to be
When we were young and so care-free
So let's find a place where we'll be happy
And watch the vultures making circles in the sky
And when you ask us if we'd be ready to die today
We would say yes
