Vultures of Debt by Hell Calls Me
Vultures of Debt
Verse 1:
Shadows creep where the daylight dies,
Ledger lines like barbed wire ties.
Whispers echo in the alley of your mind,
Promises you broke, chains you can’t unwind.
Steel talons scratch across the edge of your fear,
Eyes like coals burning, always near.
Every coin you owe is a beacon in the night,
Drawing in the scavengers who circle tight.
Chorus:
Vultures of debt, circling above,
Feathers black as regret, pecking at your love.
No place to hide, no ground to stand,
They strip your soul with their merciless hands.
Verse 2:
Paper wings flap over rooftops gray,
They taste the panic like a bitter bouquet.
Bills like bones piled high on the floor,
Every step you take, they hunger for more.
Clock hands ticking like a predator’s breath,
Counting the seconds closer to death.
The weight of owing drags you to the sand,
The vultures feast, and you can’t make a stand.
Chorus:
Vultures of debt, circling above,
Feathers black as regret, pecking at your love.
No place to hide, no ground to stand,
They strip your soul with their merciless hands.
Bridge:
Silver coins glint like eyes in the gloom,
Every missed payment a nail in your tomb.
You reach for the sky but the clouds pull you down,
The vultures laugh in their skeletal crown.
Chorus (Reimagined):
Vultures of debt, wings in the storm,
Tearing at the heart that can’t conform.
Every promise lost, every tear that’s shed,
You’re prey to the vultures of debt.
Outro:
So sleep with one eye open, the night is your debt,
They’ll find you in shadow, you can’t forget.
Feathers like knives, eyes cold and met,
Forever hunted by the vultures of debt.
