Vultures

[Verse 1]

Some of us, we're hardly ever here

The rest of us, we're born to disappear

How do I stop myself from being just a number?

How will I hold my head to keep from goin' under?

[Chorus]

Down to the wire

I wanted water, but I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes to take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do when the world keeps testing me, testing me, testing me

[Verse 2]

How did they find me here?

What do they want from me?

All of these vultures hiding right outside my door

I hear them whispering

They're tryin' to ride it out

They've never gone this long without a kill before

[Chorus]

Down to the wire

I wanted water, but I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes to take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do when the world keeps testing me, testing me, testing me

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

Wheels up

I got to leave this evening

I can't seem to shake these vultures off of my trail

Power is made by power being taken

So I keep on running to protect my situation

[Chorus]

Down to the wire

I wanted water, but I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes to take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do when the world keeps testing me, testing me, now

[Outro]

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Whatcha gonna do about it?

Whatcha gonna do about it?

Whatcha gonna do 'bout it?

Don't give up, give up

Don't give up, give up, give up

Don't you give up

Don't give up, give up, give up
