CAPABLE PREDATOR

Stop that King

No keeps to raid but it ain’t no thing

Can’t see when you pray without a candle

You struggle or you sink

To the fiend who would end all things

You thought that you could bleed

But you’re wrong

Capable Predator

I’ll be the next one to leave here you can be sure

Hot edge and silent roar

The man in the gray suit will beat me back to the shore

Dead eyes and tidal bore

I’ll be the next one, who knows?

Betty didn’t like the call the widowers way

But that didn’t stop her from drawing tears all from his face

She got a showbox of our pockmark gaze

That I didn’t remember…

Opiates and Adderall in rarified space

With a pretty young thing

Who will do what I say

So you better not function, or you’ll be like the rest of us…

Heard that you’d be leaving this town but I saw you

Standing outside your door

Looking like you did before

Capable Predator

The man in the gray suit is beneath me but I can’t be sure

Dead eyes and tidal bore

I’ll be the next one, you know?

Capable Predator

I’ll be the next one to leave here

You can be sure

Hot edge and silent roar

I’ll be the next one, you know.
