Carnivorous Pets
Moved to the city with my marionettes
All starry-eyed and wooden-jawed
Keeping a cage full of carnivorous pets
I get my kicks from playing God
When God in heaven isn't taking a stance
I dig myself a deeper hole
And plant a garden full of poisonous plants
I like the danger of control
Starving and hollowed out
Keeping steady pace
Carving my monogram
On a stranger's face
Where everyone can see em
Buoyant and brutal while I'm making my mark
Just like the wild birds of prey
Most of the time it's just a shot in the dark
But at lеast I'm hunting every day
Most of the timе it's just a shot in the dark
But at least I'm hunting every day
I love the feeling of the strings that I pull
And all my callouses and scars
Keeping the cages in my garden stocked full
My demons rot behind the bars
All starry-eyed and wooden-jawed
Keeping a cage full of carnivorous pets
I get my kicks from playing God
When God in heaven isn't taking a stance
I dig myself a deeper hole
And plant a garden full of poisonous plants
I like the danger of control
Starving and hollowed out
Keeping steady pace
Carving my monogram
On a stranger's face
Where everyone can see em
Buoyant and brutal while I'm making my mark
Just like the wild birds of prey
Most of the time it's just a shot in the dark
But at lеast I'm hunting every day
Most of the timе it's just a shot in the dark
But at least I'm hunting every day
I love the feeling of the strings that I pull
And all my callouses and scars
Keeping the cages in my garden stocked full
My demons rot behind the bars
