lyrics
it used to be cool
when you knew how to handle it
when it didn’t make you sick
anymore
it used to be fun
you were on top of it
you could be so much more with it
it just couldn’t be wrong
cooler than ice
whatever would come your way
you could face it anyway and finally
life could be so nice
no worries - anymore
as long as your reservoir
would never run dry
of these promises of honey pie
but nothing comes for free
everything has its price
and slowly you realized
the catastrophe
and at night
when you lie in your bed you wish
you had never said yes to this
you are on the edge of the abyss, now
every night
you’re repeating your lullaby
from tomorrow on, you’re free to fly
over the edge of the abyss
two hearts
are beating in your chest
competing for the rest
of what is left of you
see them morph into
a single hearted soul
heading for the fall
on the edge of the abyss
every night
when you lie in your bed you wish
you had never started this
you are on the edge of the abyss, now
and every night
you’re repeating your lullaby
that one day you’re gonna to fly
over the edge of the abyss
in the golden ray of the morning sun
you know, you’ve lost, your spirit’s gone
in that night
when you lie in your bed you wish
you had never been part of this
you are on the edge of the abyss
every night
you’re repeating your lullaby
tomorrow you’re gonna fly
over the edge of the abyss
when you knew how to handle it
when it didn’t make you sick
anymore
it used to be fun
you were on top of it
you could be so much more with it
it just couldn’t be wrong
cooler than ice
whatever would come your way
you could face it anyway and finally
life could be so nice
no worries - anymore
as long as your reservoir
would never run dry
of these promises of honey pie
but nothing comes for free
everything has its price
and slowly you realized
the catastrophe
and at night
when you lie in your bed you wish
you had never said yes to this
you are on the edge of the abyss, now
every night
you’re repeating your lullaby
from tomorrow on, you’re free to fly
over the edge of the abyss
two hearts
are beating in your chest
competing for the rest
of what is left of you
see them morph into
a single hearted soul
heading for the fall
on the edge of the abyss
every night
when you lie in your bed you wish
you had never started this
you are on the edge of the abyss, now
and every night
you’re repeating your lullaby
that one day you’re gonna to fly
over the edge of the abyss
in the golden ray of the morning sun
you know, you’ve lost, your spirit’s gone
in that night
when you lie in your bed you wish
you had never been part of this
you are on the edge of the abyss
every night
you’re repeating your lullaby
tomorrow you’re gonna fly
over the edge of the abyss

Vultures Ahead Jena, Germany
we are vultures ahead, a five-piece band emerged from the jena jam scene.
somewhere between
catchy melodies, oppressive guitar walls and atmospheric breaks, we deliver our unique mixture of alternative rock, shoegaze and various other ingredients.
in the last weeks we created our very first demo "withered", recorded on our own.
