John Mayer Trio Vultures Lyrics

Vultures Lyrics

Some of us, we're hardly ever here

The rest of us, we're born to disappear

How do I stop myself from bein' just a number

How do I hold my head to keep from goin' 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 hangin' right outside my door

I hear them whisperin', they're tryin' to ride it out

'Cause 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



Wheels up, I got to leave this evening

Can't seem to shake these vultures off of my trail

Powers is made, by power being taken

So I keep on running to protect 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



Whatcha gonna do about it?

Whatcha gonna do about it?

Whatcha gonna do about it?
