[Verse 1]
Boots on your table
Mud on my midnight dress
You track my every movement
Like you’re smelling out a threat
Silver on your chest chain
Shaking with that holy breath
You swear you came to end me
But you just stare at my neck
[Pre-Chorus]
You say
“I hunt the darkness”
[low vocal register] I’m the darkness in your hands
You load another promise
But your pulse don’t understand
[Chorus]
Crimson collar
Come a little closer
Boy
You point that cross
Like it’s some kind of toy
You chase monsters
I turn hunters into joy
Crimson collar
You’re my favorite little decoy
[Verse 2]
You ask about the bodies
I ask about your past
You talk about your father
How he swore this pain would last
I taste that bitter history
Hanging off your laugh
You’re built for righteous anger
But you melt beneath my grasp
[Pre-Chorus]
You say
“I live for justice”
I just lick it off your skin
You’re drawing all these boundaries
While I’m drawing you back in
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[whispered vocals]
Lay that stake on the table
Let it roll
Let it roll away
If you’re so sure you’re able
Why you shaking when I say your name?
[spoken
Close to the mic]
Hunter
Hero
Holy man
Look at you
Begging for the bite you came here to prevent
[crescendo]
You’re praying under your breath
I’m swaying over your chest
You’re asking who’s in danger
Baby
Take one guess
[Chorus]
