Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Bare feet on the dirt Blood steam in the air We learned every footprint Turned hunger into prayer Ran plains into silence Till big hearts beat slow We wore down the daylight We don’t know how to let go (yeah) [Chorus] We are apex animals Long chase, long night We make monsters nervous When we step into the light Best friend, worst nightmare Same face, same stare We are apex animals Careful what you wake in there [Verse 2] We shook hands with shadows Called the dark our friend Made deals with the danger Then ate it in the end We’ll throw our arms ‘round anything Bone, steel, fur, flame Pack bond with the poison Call every wild thing by name (hey!) [Chorus] We are apex animals Long chase, long night We make monsters nervous When we step into the light Best friend, worst nightmare Same face, same stare We are apex animals Careful what you wake in there [Bridge] Heard a howl at the treeline Didn’t run, we grinned Said, “Come walk beside us Let the hunt begin” Teeth and claws and collar tags Sleeping by our side We turn wolves into family But the wolf never died (never died) [Chorus] We are apex animals Long chase, long night We make monsters nervous When we step into the light Best friend, worst nightmare Same face, same stare We are apex animals Careful what you wake in there

rock, Thick detuned guitars in drop tuning, gravelly male vocals front and center. Verse riff marches mid-tempo with palm-muted chugs and dissonant slides; chorus slams open with wide power chords, gang shouts, and a snarling, shouted hook. Bass grinds in the low mids, drums hit hard and dry with roomy snare. Brief feedback swells between sections for menace; overall energy climbs from stalking tension to full-bore pack fury., grunge
