otep – apex predator lyrics
she’s begging on the door
she’s crawling on the floor
oh, she’s so coy
she’s scratching on the walls
she’s clawing at the gauze
she’s so coy.
she’s a knot on the ropes
she’s pulling at the hooks
she’s so coy
oh, you know she wants it
in the way that she taunts me
d-mn, she’s so coy
it’s the apex predator
with a message for the listener.
seduce & destroy
your head upon a stick
would look really sick
but they would call me crazy
for the way i spoke to it
i’d ask about its day,
did it miss me while i was away?
tight-lipped from the st-tches
it wouldn’t have much to say
the rest would be kept
in a tight little dress
locked up in the corner
a perfect little pet
locked in the box
so i could give start
a trophy to show me
that all is not lost
the writing on the wall
a psalm in napalm
abandon all hope
but try to stay calm
bleach to clean the curses
i exist. i’m not the first.
tell my mother i love her.
i didn’t suffer
photos & fantasies.
virtuoso of crime scenes
the apex predator
why does she look so much like me?
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that?
i gotta satisfy the thirst
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that?
death is such a flirt.
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that
you’ll get what you deserve
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that
survival of the worst
it’s the apex predator
the writing on the wall
em evas
she’s got a broken arm,
i’ve got a broken heart.
boy, she’s so coy.
she made a little fire
with a fork & electrical wire.
d-mn, she’s so coy.
blowtorch nightlight,
switchblade knife fights
f-ck, she’s so coy.
thunder in the distance.
gunshots or missiles?
my smile is artificial.
the lock clicks, my eyes fix.
the writing on the wall,
a psalm in napalm
abandon all hope
but try to stay calm
bleach to clean the curses
i exist. i’m not the first.
tell my mother i love her.
i didn’t suffer.
no regrets, no apologies.
a self-fulfilling prophecy.
the apex predator.
all i could smell was her hair ….burning
n-body move, n-body gets hurt,
but where’s the fun in that?
i gotta satisfy the thirst
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that?
death is such a flirt.
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that
to get what you deserve
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that
survival of the worst
why does she look so much like me?
em evas… like worms on a hook
that were plucked from the heart
of the bodies of gods
for the wretched and lost
like worms on a hook
that were plucked from the heart
of the bodies of gods
that men had forgot
like worms on a hook
that were plucked from the heart
of the bodies of gods
that were rotting to dust
all i could smell was her hair ….burning
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that?
i gotta satisfy the thirst…
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that?
death is such a flirt.
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that
to get what you deserve
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that
survival of the worst
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that?
i gotta satisfy the thirst…
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that?
death is such a flirt.
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that
to get what you deserve
n-body move, n-body gets hurt
but where’s the fun in that
survival of the worst
all i could smell was her hair…
all i could smell was her hair…
burning…
