lyrics

CAPABLE PREDATOR

Stop that King
No keeps to raid but it ain’t no thing
Can’t see when you pray without a candle
You struggle or you sink
To the fiend who would end all things
You thought that you could bleed
But you’re wrong

Capable Predator
I’ll be the next one to leave here you can be sure
Hot edge and silent roar
The man in the gray suit will beat me back to the shore
Dead eyes and tidal bore
I’ll be the next one, who knows?

Betty didn’t like the call the widowers way
But that didn’t stop her from drawing tears all from his face
She got a showbox of our pockmark gaze
That I didn’t remember…
Opiates and Adderall in rarified space
With a pretty young thing
Who will do what I say
So you better not function, or you’ll be like the rest of us…

Heard that you’d be leaving this town but I saw you
Standing outside your door
Looking like you did before

Capable Predator
The man in the gray suit is beneath me but I can’t be sure
Dead eyes and tidal bore
I’ll be the next one, you know?

Capable Predator
I’ll be the next one to leave here
You can be sure
Hot edge and silent roar
I’ll be the next one, you know.
