The Wise Man's Fear - Prayer Of The Prey Şarkı Sözleri

I will not compete this way
I refuse to run your race
Turn and run, escape while you can;
You're just a part of her masterplan
She feeds off all of the anguish and wrath
Of those who could not escape from her grasp
I wish you could see yourself as I do,
All these obstructions entangled round you.

You heard the stories and still decided not to heed
She promised you she'd be everything that you need.
She was an angel or at least that's what you believed,
But when you turned your back you knew that you were deceived.
But when you turned your back you knew that you were deceived.

I won't. Back down. I will. Hold my ground!
I won't. Back down. I will. Hold my ground!
I won't. Back down. I will. Hold my ground!
I won't. Back down. I will. Hold my ground!

She drowned you in infatuation
Took over your life, became your new obsession.
You couldn't run, you could not hide
Love's just a joke, and you were the punch line.
Same old story, same old lies
Your lust and love led to demise
She searches for hearts by night and day
But she never hears the prayer of the prey.

You heard the stories and still decided not to heed
She promised you she'd be everything that you need.
She was an angel or at least that's what you believed,
But when you turned your back you knew that you were deceived.
But when you turned your back you knew that you were deceived.

I thought all of you were better than this
That ship has sailed
You won't be missed
You won't be missed
