  • I got an axe to grind, a crooked mind
    You better watch your back
    I got an axe to grind, a crooked mind
    You better watch your back
    Starved like a vampire chasing a vein
    Cruel disposition, sickness I crave
    Attention, attention, welcome to the stage
    Your new sacrifice, come sharpen your teeth

    Prey, we are all prey for the sorrow
    Prey, we are all prey for the sorrow, our sorrow
    Prey, prey
    We're prey for the sorrow
    Prey, prey
    Prey for the sorrow

    I got an axe to grind, a crooked mind
    You better watch your back
    I got an axe to grind, a crooked mind
    You better watch your back
    Sick validation, gut full of pills
    Self-medication, it's making me ill
    Attention, attention, it's all eyes on me
    I'll burn at the stake while you ache for the kill

    Prey, we are all prey for the sorrow
    Prey, we are all prey for the sorrow, our sorrow
    Prey for the sorrow
    Our sorrow

    Prey, prey
    We're prey for the sorrow
    Prey, prey
    Prey for the sorrow

    Our new gods are empty like the holes in our heads
    We dance upon the alter of envy and hubris
    A scourge of narcissism reaps depression in black waves
    If this is your salvation, you better pray

    You better pray
    You better pray
    One, two, three, go

    Prey, we are all prey for the sorrow
    Prey, we are all prey for the sorrow, our sorrow
    Prey, prey
    Prey for the sorrow
    Prey, prey
    Prey for the sorrow Writer/s: Benjamin Michael Gordon, Jeffrey Cleve Ling, Luke Thomas Kilpatrick, Winston Thomas McCall
