Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down eat you alive
Just like animals, animals
Like animals-mals...
So what you trying to do to me
It's like we can't stop, we're enemies
And now, we get along when I'm inside you
You're like a drug that's killing me
I cut you out entirely
Girl, I get so high when I'm inside you
Yeah you can start over, you can run free
You can find other fish in the sea
You can pretend it's meant to be
But you can't stay away from me
I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me, but no...
Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down eat you alive
Just like animals, animals
Like animals-mals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent from miles
Just like animals, animals
Like animals-mals
Baby I'm
So if I run it's not enough
You're still in my head
Forever stuck
So you can do what you wanna do
I love your lies, I'll eat 'em up
But don't deny the animal
That comes alive when I'm inside you
Yeah you can start over, you can run free (but I wonder where were you)
You can find other fish in the sea (when I was at my worst)
You can pretend it's meant to be (down on my knees...)
But you can't stay away from me (and you said you had my back)
I can still hear you making that sound (so I wonder where were you)
Taking me down rolling on the ground (when all the roads you took)
You can pretend that it was me but no (came back to me...)
So I'm following the map that leads to you
Baby I'm preying on you tonight (the map that leads to you)
Hunt you down eat you alive (ain't nothing I can do)
Just like animals, animals (the map that leads to you)
Like animals-mals (following, following to you)
Maybe you think that you can hide (the map that leads to you)
I can smell your scent from miles (ain't nothing I can do)
Just like animals, animals (the map that leads to you)
Like animals-mals (following...)
Baby I'm
Don't tell no lies-ies-ies-ies,
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny.
The beast inside-side-side-side,
Yeah, yeah, yeah (I was there for you)
No girl don't lie-lie-lie-lie, (oh, in your darkest times)
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny (oh, I was there for you...)
The beast inside-side-side-side, (oh, in your darkest times)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Just like animals, animals)
No girl don't lie-lie-lie-lie, (oh, I was there for you...)
(Like animals-mals)
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny (oh, in your darkest times)
(Just like animals, animals)
The beast inside-side-side-side, (oh, I was there for you...)
(Ahoooooo)(like animals...)
Ohohoho! Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down eat you alive
Just like animals, animals
Like animals-mals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent from miles
Just like animals, animals
Like a-ni-mals
