Vultures lyrics

John Mayer See albums and popular songs

Some of us, We're hardly ever here

The rest of us, we're born to disappear

How do I stop myself from

Being just a number

How do I hold my head

To keep from going under

Down to the wire

I wanted water but

I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes

To take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do

When the world keeps

Testing me, testing me, testing me

How did they find me here

What do they want from me

All of these vultures hanging

Right outside my door

I hear them whisperin

They're tryin to ride it out

They've never gone this long

Without a kill before

Down to the wire

I wanted water but

I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes

To take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do

When the world keeps

Testing me, testing me, testing me

(solo)

Wheels up

I got to leave this evening

Can't seem to keep these vultures

Out of my tree(sometimes he says trail)

Powers is made, by power being taken

I keep on running

To protect(sometimes he says control) my situation

Down to the wire

I wanted water but

I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes

To take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do

When the world keeps

Testing me, testing me, testing

Oooooooooooo

Oooooooooooo

Oooooooooooo

Oooooooooooo

Whatcha gonna do about it

Whatcha gonna do about it
