The Neighbourhood – Prey lyrics

[Verse]
As long as you notice
I'm hoping that you'll keep your heart open
I'll keep mine open too
If you don't ask I won't tell
Just know that, just know that
It all hurts, it all hurts just the same

[Chorus]
Something is wrong
I can't explain
Everything changed when the birds came
You never know what they might do
If they catch you too early
We need to fly ourselves before someone else tells us how
Something is off
I feel like prey, I feel like praying

[Verse]
As long as you notice
I'm hoping that you'll keep your heart open
I'll keep mine open too
So, so I'd rather take you aside
Tell you what's on my mind
But you, you'll just keep it inside
Rather tell me that you're alright

[Chorus]
Something is wrong
I can't explain
Everything changed when the birds came
You never know what they might do
If they catch you too early
We need to fly ourselves before someone else tells us how
Something is off
I feel like prey, I feel like praying

(If I run) If I run away I'll never know
(What you want) And if you go then I'll never grow
(I'm undone) Let me slip, let me slide
(If you run) I'll be sure to let you fly

[Chorus]
Something is off
I can't explain
You know what I mean don't you?
Something I saw, or something I did
Made me like this
Could you help me?
We need to fly ourselves before someone else tells us how
Something is off
I feel like prey, I feel like praying

Something is off
I feel like prey, I feel like praying

So, so I'd rather take you aside
Tell you what's on my mind
But you, you'll just keep it inside
Rather tell me that you're alright
So, so I'd rather take you aside
Tell you what's on my mind
But you, you'll just keep it inside
Rather tell me that you're alright

I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
