The truth
Like Vultures Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is your answer, you're not above the truth.
Go.
I'm at my breaking point.
Had everything to lose.
I tried building myself a life now it's all gone thanks to you.
Thought I could be something more, now I'm staring at the floor!
I know it's hard for you to understand all I ever wanted was the truth.
Show me the door, you shunned me from your home.
It looks like you wanted to leave me high and dry!
What the hell is going on with you these days?
Always you're second guessing, trying to keep me stressing.
You skeptics you're so relentless but it's all that I'm expecting from you anymore.
What if I can't remember all of the love that I had for you?
When this is over will you even have a clue?
I'm at my breaking point.
Had everything to lose.
I tried building myself a life now it's all gone thanks to you.
Thought I could be something more, now I'm staring at the floor!
I know it's hard for you to understand all I ever wanted was the truth.
Now you're stranded alone.
Show me the door, you shunned me from your home.
It looks like you wanted to leave me high and dry!
All I ever wanted was the truth from you.
It's all you had to do, now all I have to say is fuck you!
All I ever wanted was the truth
All I ever wanted was the truth
OH
Now you're stranded alone.
Show me the door, you shunned me from your home.
It looks like you wanted to leave me high and dry!
Get up!
The lyrics of Like Vultures's song The Truth explores the emotions and pain of an individual who has been hurt badly by someone they trusted. The singer questions whether they can forgive the other person for the hurtful things they have put them through. The answer they provide themselves is that they cannot forgive because they deserve the truth, and the other person is not above it. The singer reveals that they are at a breaking point - they had everything to lose, and they tried building a life for themselves which is now all gone thanks to the other person. They thought they could have been something more than they are now, but they are left staring at the floor. The singer expresses that they have always wanted nothing but the truth from the other person, which they failed to provide. Now, the other person is left stranded alone, and the singer wants them out after feeling shunned from their home.
