Buzzards

(专辑： Bar Stool Preacher - 2022)

High noon sun, shadows on the ground
Feels like I oughta be in some old out west town
And they're circling overhead
It's all starting to make sense
Why you can't look me in the eye and tell me where you've been

I see buzzards like they know something I don't
Girl, they're giving you away, saying everything you won't
If they're waiting round for us to die, there won't be nothing left
'Cause when love is gone, it's gone
And yeah man, these damned birds are gonna starve to death

They must know you, and hell, you must know them
You've told them that you're leaving or they just smell it on the wind
And they're blocking out the sun, but girl, you know that I ain't blind
I can see a goodbye coming but I appreciate the warning signs

I see buzzards like they know something I don't
Girl, they're giving you away, saying everything you won't
If they're waiting round for us to die, there won't be nothing left
'Cause when love is gone, it's gone
Yeah man, these damned birds are gonna starve to death

So pack 'em up with you when you ditch this one horse town
We both know it's over or they'd be long gone by now

I see buzzards like they know something I don't
Girl, they're giving you away, saying everything you won't
If they're waiting round for us to die, there won't be nothing left
'Cause when love is gone, it's gone
And yeah man, these damned birds are gonna starve to death
