"The Prey" lyrics

"The Prey"

I never wanted your shit on my shoes
I gave you my time, I gave you my body
Never meant to be your flower girl
I never wanted that

We'll run like the prey
As fast as the wind
On a day like today
Oh, let it begin
Ah, we'll run away
Ah, we'll run away
Away

Holding the reins
They will break us in and
Show me the way, to win
To win

Come and feel the moss against your heels
Come and learn the folds of this dark summer
Come and lie among the brambles now
Feel the movements of your body

We'll run like the prey
As fast as the wind
On a day like today
Oh, let it begin
Ah, we'll run away
Ah, we'll run away
Oh-oh

Holding the reins
They will break us in
And show me the way to win

Run as the prey, as fast as the wind
On a day like today
Oh let it begin
Oh, we'll run away
Oh, we'll run away
Away

Holding the reins
They will break us in and
Show me the way to win
To win
