The Prey
Lonely cage
lonely world
lonely someone
lonely girl
the hunter spotted
his naive prey
he lick his chops
and makes his way
“because I love you”, he says with a grin
“you are now mine, never your own person
you will act to please me, becoming a shell
if you love me you will do this, don’t question yourself”
with all morals gone the hunter gets the prey
“because I love you”, she said, “I must act this way”
time passes by and realization kicks in
this isn’t love, it never has been
running from the hunter, the prey becomes strong
finally finding someone who proves the hunter wrong
“because I love you”, the new someone states,
“I’ll never hurt you or leave you, I’ll take you on dates
I long to make you happy, as you do me,
be your own person, I will get down on one knee
you are my future, my one and only
Because I love you, let me love you forever.”
