[Verse 1]They come around when you are on your kneesSurrounding one by one, taking what you needYour mouth is dry as you lay downBegging for those vultures to set you freeVultures pick your bones, pick them so cleanBathing in your tears of misery for yearsThey take you for everything you haveConsuming you 'til there's nothing of you left[Refrain]Only God knows what's wrong with me[Verse 2]They show up when you stink and rotTaking everything that's precious to your heartWhen you have been stripped downVultures fly away, thorns in your crown[Refrain]Only God knows what's wrongOnly God knows what's wrong with meYeah, yeahYeah, yeah[Chorus]Vultures circle all around youThey come to take your soul across the river[Bridge]They only come around when things are wrongThey only come around when you got what they want[Refrain]Only God knows what's wrongOnly God knows what's wrong with meYeah, yeahYeah, yeah[Chorus]Vultures circle all around youThey come to take your soul across the riverVultures circle all around youThey come to take your soul across the riverVultures circle all around youThey come to take your soul across the river
