Prey

A warning to the people 
 The good and the evil 
For when I die
The fire in my bones
Will ignite
To wildfires 

Watch your back
A ghost is upon you
My shadowy figure
Waiting around every corner
Prepare for an attack 

I don’t care 
Who you are
What you want to be
You’re all the same to me

A victim of my hunger
A feast for my flame
Suffocate and burn
One by one
Say your goodbyes

The whole world is hell
Suffer now or later
There’s no difference

Hunt or be hunted 
In the world
Of prey
Who believe themselves
To be wolves
