The Vulture (Nervosa) Lyrics
Do you ever wish you’d never been born?
That’s me.
That’s me.
That’s me.
My lips are parting like sweet sorrow
I taste it
I hear the whimpering
The silence, then the sigh
The little ugly voice is stifled
Underneath my body
I feel it kicking in my stomach while it dies
Ask me why dying feels so good.
Do you ever wish you’d never been born?
Ask me
Ask me
Ask me
Do you ever wish you’d never been born?
That’s me
That’s me
That’s me
The resonance becomes a fist
And numbs my face
My teeth, my backbone
I’m learning that it gets easy to shut it out
And soon the life comes leaking out
It throws in death and dies alone
Tastes like copper losing taste
Smeared on my mouth
So speak to me, my little child
You dying baby
Stooped in ink, formaldehyde
The bubbles pop
Why can’t you grow?
I want to know
Am I so far gone?
Just writhing in the dirt
I’m lost and going on
That’s me.
That’s me.
That’s me.
I taste it
I hear the whimpering
The silence, then the sigh
The little ugly voice is stifled
Underneath my body
I feel it kicking in my stomach while it dies
Ask me
Ask me
Ask me
Do you ever wish you’d never been born?
That’s me
That’s me
That’s me
And numbs my face
My teeth, my backbone
I’m learning that it gets easy to shut it out
And soon the life comes leaking out
It throws in death and dies alone
Tastes like copper losing taste
Smeared on my mouth
You dying baby
Stooped in ink, formaldehyde
The bubbles pop
Why can’t you grow?
I want to know
Am I so far gone?
Just writhing in the dirt
I’m lost and going on

I think it's about pregnancy loss/miscarriage (or abortion ?)
Actually, both CDs Anorexia and Nervosa tell a story. It actually comes with a booklet that tells the story of two sisters named Anorexia and Nervosa. Anorexia and Nervosa decide to go on a journey and the booklet tells the story of their journeys, and the music goes along with it. So really, to get the full effect, you will have to get the whole CD or at least listen to all the songs, because they too tell the story kind of.
