Kill : Death : Ratio - As The Vulture Stares (Official Lyric Video)

As the Vulture Stares is an 8 1/2 minute epic song with a lot of light and shade. A particularly smooth guitar solo midway through that evokes a calm before the storm before a blistering finish.

Words & Music by Kill : Death : Ratio

Starving children die while we look to the sky
Empathy lost through the screen

A world desensitised
Becoming more dehumanised
All the while the vulture sits and waits

Do you believe what we've become? Inchoate

Disconnected as a species we are blind
Crawling on all fours back to the sea

Defeat the heart with selfish notions think we are the gods we made – betrayed
We sit atop and watch the helpless fade away with token care - Resigned

Humans don’t see humans anymore
Caught up in our self-importance
Strip away the things we learned and reach a hand out
Just pick them up and save ourselves from ourselves

Unperceived devolution
Self-righteous animals
Destructive dream pollution
It can survive no more

We let them die
We only show humanity if it fits within our lives

Out of the sky
The circling of vultures waiting where the bodies lie

Why let them die?
Why not reach out with your hand?

Why don’t we try?
Why do we let them die?
