Birds of prey, dying in the night
slip into the atmosphere, turning white
contemplating secrets, silence in the room
birds of prey, flying to the moon, yeah
Birds of prey, slip into the void
much too hungry to fly away
waiting until they find
a possible solution to an impossible end
And all I really wanted was just to keep you by my side
and all I really wanted was just to keep you satisfied
Birds of prey
fly into the night
birds of prey
getting ready getting ready for the fight
I saw them in the park, creeping down a blind old man
iron gleeming in the dark, I can see them making plans
birds of prey, knocking on my door
birds of prey, I ain't gonna feed you anymore
And all I really wanted was just to keep you by my side
and all I really wanted was just to keep you satisfied
Birds of prey
fly into the night
birds of prey
getting ready getting ready for the fight
And all I really wanted was just to touch you every day
and all I really wanted was just to love you any way
Birds of prey
fly into the night
birds of prey
getting ready getting ready for the fight
