Oceans Ate Alaska – Vultures And Sharks lyrics

[Intro] x2
They came to conquer, all they wanted was to watch us suffer
Should have known what doesn’t kill me, only makes us stronger

[Verse 1]
Some say we brought this upon ourselves
Overlooked the cracks, never heard the cries for help
I have no one to blame but myself
Whispers in the wind, shared all our sins and secrets
They came to conquer (They Came to conquer)
Not for glory or a hero’s return
All they want is to watch us crash and burn

[Chorus]
Vultures above and sharks below are waiting for us to fall
In hope that they’ll catch you and ruin it all
Circling us from head to toe
We’re swimming in the shallows arguing to and from
There’s bad blood in the air
This killer instincts the only thing we’ll ever share

[Verse 2]
We are the creators of our own demise. They took to the seas
They took to the skies. Only had eyes for my prize possessions
(Turned all my confessions into lies)
All they want is to watch us crash and burn
All they want is to watch us crash and burn

[Breakdown]
This is what it feels like to be in the jaws of defeat
One thousand teeth. Slowly sinking in

[Chorus]

[Outro]
They came to conquer, all they wanted was to watch us suffer
They came to conquer, all they wanted was to watch us suffer
Watch us suffer
