The Prey Lyrics

There's a bible on the shelf and inside it has your name

And your mothers dry tears stain her very favorite page

A paper anchor that she prayed would bring home

Though you lived most of your life lost out in the woods

When you thought you found love too late understood

That a sheep's disguise can come in many shades

Consorting with the darkness, blinded by your pain

Give to him, body and soul

So you conjured up a deal and you sealed it with a kiss

So blinded by it's mask that I see you must have missed

The tendrils of beast as they dug into your brain

And now your trapped in yourself and you're losing your grip

Just a final desperate gasp as you plunge into the pit

From your lips it smiles and takes his name in vain

Consorting with the darkness, blinded by your pain

Give to him your body and soul

When you play with fire you are bound to get burnt

The devil is a liar but you heard his words first

The pain you hide is written on your face

With the sounding of the tenth horn a seventh head turns

A shadow steps free of the candles he burns

The forest comes alive and the wolves begin to bay

You will not rest

Perdition pulls you in

Led blindly to the slaughter

Burning in your sin

You fall forever in the void and your life flash past

All the signs you missed, and judgement you lacked

Swept away in a torrent and lost eternally

There's no coming back silence sets in

Strapped to the floor just you and it

Forever to be meat to the beast with no name

Consorting with the darkness, blinded by your pain

Give to him, body and soul

When you play with fire you are bound to get burnt

The devil is a liar but you heard his words first

The pain you hide is written on your face

With the sounding of the tenth horn a seventh head turns

A shadow steps free of the candles he burns

The forest comes alive and the wolves begin to bay

When you play with fire you are bound to get burnt

The devil is a liar but you heard his words first

The pain you hide is written on your face

With the sounding of the tenth horn a seventh head turns

A shadow steps free of the candles he burns

The forest comes alive and the wolves begin to bay

You will not rest

Perdition pulls you in

Led blindly to the slaughter

Burning in your sin

There's a scorching on the floor where your body used to rest

Before the maw split open and swallowed what's left

And in the fiery depths of oblivion, no one hears you scream

You know deceit hides itself behind charm and a smile

As you fell for me so hard I knew all the while

I would drag you down, and on your flesh I'll feast

Consorting with the darkness, blinded by your pain

Give to him, body and soul

When you play with fire you are bound to get burnt

The devil is a liar but you heard his words first

The pain you hide is written on your face

With the sounding of the tenth horn a seventh head turns

A shadow steps free of the candles he burns

The forest comes alive and the wolves begin to bay

When you play with fire you are bound to get burnt

The devil is a liar but you heard his words first

The pain you hide is written on your face

With the sounding of the tenth horn a seventh head turns

A shadow steps free of the candles he burns

The forest comes alive and the wolves begin to bay

You will not rest

Perdition pulls you in

Led blindly to the slaughter

Burning in your sin

Looking for the father

You're praying for release

The deal you signed eternal

Forever here with me
