Started with the stone
Setting in the ground
Lying on the pathways through our town
Started with the rain fall
Buttering your face it all
Started when the gale came whistling
Whistling down
My love
Seems the dust hasn't settled
On the city we left alone

And the vultures are circling above
The city of skin and bone

Started with our lungs
Choking on exhaust
Searching for a sign until we're lost
Started with the pavement
Loveless embrace it all
Started when the gale came to carry us so far away
And my love
Seems the dust hasn't settled
On the city we left alone

And the vultures are circling
And the vultures are circling above
The city of skin and bone

And it makes you now
Anser the call from again
And leaves you alone, lone, lone

Started with the stone
Setting in the ground
Think that you can call yourself a home
With the roof that would never feel the rain
And my love
Seems the dust hasn't settled
On the city we left alone

And the vultures are circling
And the vultures are circling above

My love
It seems that dust hasn't settled
On the city we left alone

And the vultures are circling
And the vultures are circling above
The city of skin and bone
