Alice Glass – THE HUNTED Lyrics

 

THE HUNTED Lyrics by Alice Glass

 

It was a shot in the dark
But you missed the heart
Watch the hunter be the hunted
Watch the hunter be the hunted

They want
A rose to paint over
It’s never enough
Drain you
Down until you fade away
It’s never enough
Part of
You’ll never be a part of this
Let go and let god
I can
Barely find a place to rest my head

It was a shot in the dark
But you missed the heart
Watch the hunter be the hunted
Watch the hunter be the hunted
You took a shot in the dark
But you missed the heart
Watch the hunter be the hunted
Watch the hunter be the hunted

Slowly
They poison us so breathe it in
Stop giving us all
False hope
Washing down the aftertaste tonight
Cowards
Walking through the fields of prey
Stop pretending you’re not
I can barely watch from here
You ruined it all

You didn’t have to ask, but I know
Now I know what’s best for you
I’ve been watching all this time
All this advice, I really
I really took it to heart
Now, when you’re suffering, I’ll smile
Walk away slowly
Each step, I feel it
Relishing every move
(I’m stronger than you)

It was a shot in the dark
But you missed the heart
Watch the hunter be the hunted
Watch the hunter be the hunted
You took a shot in the dark
But you missed the heart
Watch the hunter be the hunted
Watch the hunter be the hunted
