She pounding on the door

She crawling on the floor

Oh, she's so coy

She scratching on the walls

She's clawing at the gauze

She's so coy

She's gnawing on the ropes

She's pulling at the hooks

She's so coy

Oh, you know she wants it

The way that she taunts me

Damn, she's so coy

It's the Apex Predator

With a sermon for the listener;

"Seduce and 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 stitches

It wouldn't have much to say

The rest would be kept in a

Tight little dress

Propped up in the corner

A perfect little pet

Locked in a box

So I can keep stock

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 and fantasies

Virtuoso of crimes scenes

The Apex Predator...

But why does she look so much like me?

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

I gotta satisfy the thirst

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

Death is such a flirt

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

You get what you deserve

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

Survival of the worst!

It's the Apex Predator...

(The writing on the wall)

I'm the boss

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 and electrical wire

Damn, she's so coy

Blowtorch nightlight

Switchblade knife fights

Fuck! She's so coy

Thunder in the distance

Gun shots 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

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

I gotta satisfy the thirst

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

Death is such a flirt

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

You get what you deserve

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

Survival of the worst!

But why does she look so much like me?

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

The Apex Predator...

All I could smell was her hair...

Burning

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

I gotta satisfy the thirst

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

You get what you deserve

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

But where's the fun in that?

But where's the fun in that?

I gotta satisfy the thirst

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

You get what you deserve

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt

All I could smell was her hair...
