Exactly. Vultures only eat the dead so comparing vultures to like depression or strong vices shows how it'll keep afflicting you to that breaking point. I take "Save me, if I become my demons" more like if you become consumed by negative emotions and start lashing out towards others. That whole, "If I'm unhappy then I'll make everyone around me unhappy" mentality.

This one resonates with those that have suffered from depression and anxiety. When the first verse starts proper is where I really get the visual imagery of stuff that I've suffered in the past. "They're all around me, circling like vultures. They wanna break me and wash away my colours." It really demonstrates that feeling of being surrounded by your own negative emotions and it's very despairing in the moment cause it's almost like they just sit there and wait till they can have a peck at you. And then the washing away of your colours line kinda reminds me of how sometimes when the depression is really strong how all the joy can feel like it's being sucked out of your life. Basically, this song to me can be interpreted as an anthem for those that are struggling with depression and anxiety, that feel like they're being overwhelmed by them. It helps voice that cry out for help when we really need it. Especially this part of the chorus. "Save me, if I become my demons."
