kill the vultures - coins on the open eyes lyrics

[verse 1]
if i walk blind
they’ll lay me down in chalk lines
the spot’s mine if i travel with a soft spine
the city’s hungry
everyone is fair game
spare change ain’t blood money to a pair of fangs

the air hangs like sneakers on the phone wire
too thick to breathe in
too thick to go higher
they sound like angels
voices out the black church
tracked dirt inside didn’t notice ’til the last verse

amazing grace lay your hands on my face
so i can finally feel like i’ve abandoned my ways
trying to own land before i land in my grave
how come i’m three steps ahead of you just standing in place

i felt the earth move
under my blurred view
the curfew, the proud
their hurt is on the curb too
swerve through with nothing but a word and disturbed truth
to neglect and to serve you

bite the bullet
this is gonna sting a bit
come to think of it
this the iceberg to sink your ship
no signs of life by daylight
ask the hangman if he ever gets stage fright

eyes rolling back like a slot machine
must’ve been the two-faced woman i got caught between
the poison could’ve used a little seasoning
lies blinded both eyes but f-ck it
you can leave ’em in

made a mess out of something so beautiful
i’m trying to get front row tickets to my funeral
just to see the look on my face when my maker came
then throw my ashes like paper planes
make it rain

just another ghost on the night beat
gangs are half-dead walking ’round under white sheets
i promise i won’t promise you nothin’
and you can have it all
now isn’t that something

[chorus]
coins on the open eyes
flies in the open mouth
alone how i came in
that’s how i’m going out

- kill the vultures lyrics
