Prey Lyrics

Marionette Prey

lift me
over the soil
into the clouds of blood
where we are timeless
hidden from life
burning with death
naked against the sky

I've been praying countless nights
for something to be true
for flesh to outshine the tired sun
and make these nerves explode

and her lips rip me away
to where the lights kill the gods
and I am drenched in her skin
and swept away

for her wings bring the storm
red is the sky under her feathers
for her wings bring the storm
we are the fall and the horizon burns

far over the earth
poisoned with lust
far over the earth
screaming in her arms

soaring
far from this world
reason devours itself
in our hunger
hidden from life
burning with death
naked against the sky

for her wings bring the storm
red is the sky under her feathers
for her wings bring the storm
we are the fall and the horizon burns

far over the earth
poisoned with lust
far over the earth
prey in her claws
