Predator lyrics

First I am spotted across the room

Sussed out for a degree of naiveite

When I make the cut then all systems go

And you take your first step toward me

My eyes are invitations

My welcome sign is bright

My armor is porous enough to be worked by your design

My goodness is commendable but won’t pull your heart strings

This magnet for predators is dying to be discerning

Your system of madness to mimic connection

Then you engender my trust as you pounce

You isolate and then divert attention

Distract from deception, keep me in the dark

You kept me off balance with your charming deflection

You kept me distracted, couldn’t pick this apart

What started as union turned to isolation

And you are obsessed with your prey

My eyes are invitations

My welcome sign is bright

My armor is porous enough to be worked by your design

My trust is commendable but won’t pull your heart strings

This magnet for predators is learning to be discerning
