Natural Selection

Killing to survive
(Every serpent sheds its skin at least a dozen times)
Dying's part of life
(Kill and eat and fuck and breed, the natural design)
Killing to survive
(Camouflaged in blood to hide from even my own kind)
Living is a fight
Only the strong survive

Nothing left alive
Nowhere left to hide
Because your peace is in pieces
Your heart is your weakness
Only the strong survive

Unrepentant animal
Will I be able to break the natural law?
Unrelenting cannibal
Will I be able to take the rise and fall?
I cut through the vein
It's survival of the vicious, we are one and the same
Blood trails as my enemies crawl
Blood trails as my enemies crawl

For any hope to survive on Earth
Adapt to Hell or be the prey in the dirt
Tearing your mortal shell
Your body wracks and seizes
The light leaving your eyes
Your final breath depleted

I can hear your heart stop beating
I can hear your heart stop beating
I can hear your heart-
Only the strong survive

Nothing left alive
Nowhere left to hide
Because your peace is in pieces
Your heart is your weakness
Only the strong survive

Holding life and death
I am their keeper
I need to feast
I am their reaper
Decay is my design
Forced to kill at birth
Smothering out the cries
The filth beneath the dirt

You see a predator, I see only prey
Camouflaged in blood, scavengers feast on the remains
You see a predator, I see only prey
Camouflaged in blood, scavengers feast on the remains
You see-, I see only-
Camouflaged, scavengers feast on the remains
