Wings Of The Vulture

They only take to the skies once death arrives

Through a darkened sky, so clear to see

Unveiling the closeness of morbidity

As light hits the eye, no sympathy

The talons sharper than they've ever been

Lower, lower, lower sweeps the wings of the vulture

Lurking peril trembles in the mind

Lower, lower, lower sweeps the wings of the vulture

Awaiting the bones they will pick dry

After demise

They only take to the skies once death arrives

A distant recollection has been stirred

Compelled against this life at every turn

Now high above the growing swarm is seen

The scattered fragments whispering to be free

Lower, lower, lower sweeps the wings of the vulture

Lurking peril trembles in the mind

Lower, lower, lower sweeps the wings of the vulture

Fear ridden hunger haunted flight

After demise

Descending from the sky

Once death arrives

When the end is close by

Cleansing death inside

Where there once was life

They only begin descent

When decay is evident

Always there when death arrives

Crowning evolution by design
