Freedom of speech, that's what they preach, oh how they lie The consequence, no resistance, or you will die No chance in hell, if you rebel, they'll cross the line Try to break you down, don't make a sound, just stay inside You cannot kill what is already dead Watch out, the vultures are coming Relentlessly, picking up the pieces of me Watch out, the vultures are hiding Relentlessly, picking up the pieces of me Circle of shame, who is to blame, where is the proof Turn one eye blind, no one shall find, the hidden truth They won't get caught, the ones they bought, will protect them The ones who chose, they'll be exposed, chaos and mayhem You cannot fight what is in their head Watch out, the vultures are coming Relentlessly, picking up the pieces of me Watch out, the vultures are hiding Relentlessly, picking up the pieces of me Freedom of speech, that's what they preach, oh how they lie The consequence, no resistance, or you will die You cannot kill what is already dead

Darkness on my mind I’ma looking to find All the kings and queens tonight Flush the river My hands they shiver In these deadwood streets I hide If you don’t know who I am I’m the gunslinging dead eye man Above snakes, ace high Always fit to be tied Out of control, out of line I’d make you suffer, make you bleed Now what’s left is my defeat Out of sight, out of mind I used to be the man “Good for you…” she said But my wild days are long gone Seven skulls haunt me Some of you I didn’t mean To harm you all along If you don’t know who I am I’m the gunslinging dead eye man Above snakes, ace high Always fit to be tied In control, no more hate Now it’s my time to shine Look at my hand it’s so divine Ace and an eight, ace and an eight

Have a seat inside of your fragile soul Breath in the dust and take control Take a ride and spiral down obsessive street, cannot crack the code The path towards the endless life will forever be a dead end road Ride with the devil, son Drive right into oblivion Keep your eyes on the sun And drive into oblivion Enjoy the ride while it lasts, there is no peace until you unfold The path towards the endless life will forever be a dead end road Ride with the devil, son Drive right into oblivion Keep your eyes on the sun And drive into oblivion Right into oblivion No mercy and no history Right into oblivion No rest and no immortality

Transmission sent We have but a short time This chance won’t come again Keep watching the skies What if they were right What if they were right What if they were right What if they were right What is truth, what is confusion The time for conflict is now past Are we being disillusioned Prove yourself worthy at last We have but a short time Keep watching the skies What if they were right What if they were right What if they were right What if they were right Shine your inner light Let them be the ones to guide Fulfill the Prophecy For the whole world to see Can we even evolve Or are we too conflicted at all Learn to live in peace Or leave the galaxy Learn to listen False prophets Suck your energy Have no fear Seek yourself in all infinity What if they were right What if they were right What if they were right What if they were right

I cannot fathom what has happened to me Thoughts are fuzzy and my vision unclear My mind in another man's shell Is this heaven or is it hell All the different shades the crystals reflecting I begin to realize what I've been suspecting The men dressed in white see my confusion Cognition and time are just an illusion Insomniac visions in the lights Inciteful thoughts so monumental Beyond my body, beyond and place and time This love is transcendental I have seen them fall I have seen them fall apart I have seen them fall I have seen it all I must not fall asleep I must write it all down I must not fall asleep I must write it down

The grey clouds awaken and I know that I cannot prevent You from this journey and patiently I’ll wait ‘til the end The winds tell you to stay but your heart is determined to leave I stand here in fear of what is to come so patiently One last sigh and you drown Our world comes tumbling down A whisper of death in the dark Breaking my will and my heart Please bring me home The calm before the storm gives false hope and now they are caught The waves come crashing and all that remains is a thought I would wait forever and give everything that I’ve got To see you once more and to tell you, forget me not One last sigh and you drown Our world comes tumbling down A whisper of death in the dark Breaking my will and my heart May the sea keep my soul

"Vultures" was recorded at Gernhart Studios in Troisdorf with producer Martin Buchwalter (Destruction, Tankard, Paul Di’Anno, Jen Majura and more) in 2021. All the songs were written by the band, the lyrics were written by lead singer Carsten Schmitt.
