Vultures in the City

Lyrics

All around we see Hardships greater than our own If we stop to think Half the world is on its own Sand between the land See the earth crashing down Stop making these man-made prisons Stop poisoning the air we breathe I don't know Of all the stupid notions I don't know What it is What it is I realize this beginning The first of whom will see they're winning It's so true So true It's so true So true Vultures in the city Songbirds fading fast The buzzard's empty desert Will it ever last Vultures in the city Wars are never won Minds that were ashamed Friends lost in the sun Vultures in the city Acid in the pipes It's never really over It's never really right Vultures in the city Acid in the pipes It's never really over It's never really right Enchantment is the power of learning This life school we are turning To a distant sky, to a distant song To a distant star, to a distant drum As all of the world is living I realize this is beginning It's so true It's so true It's so true It's so true So as we see the reasons unfold I count them all for nothing Open my eyes I'm alive again Unchained So caring is the path we walk Everyone receiveth the soul With the eye of distance Look again Look again outside the prison bars Be alive in the work and of the dream of love Break the chains off everyone Break the chains off everyone Look again how the Vultures changed to birds of glory (the prayers of glory) ? As the one, you believe inside releasing all the pain Look again As the sound of love It circles and surrounds you daily Trust is such a sacred word to me
