I crawl all over the ground,
In the middle of the night,
Darkness and prey are both abound,
And I'm hungry tonight.

I've got stripes all over my body,
Everyone runs away at the sight of me,
But you're the only one who stands in front of me,
As if I'm an actual somebody.

I hear you cry,
In the middle of the night,
But I don't care 'cuz I'm hungry tonight,
Don't I care? - Please don't let me try.

We're both hurting,
And we're both crying,
But the fear's still lurking,
And I'm still trying.

Don't let me see you run,
Don't let me hear you scream,
'Cuz the urge inside is strong,
And I promise
The chase will not last long.

I've got stripes all over my body,
I choke myself at the sight of me,
I can't stand myself 'cuz I'm a nobody,
Oh I should just end this misery.

But then you stand in front of me,
Even though I'm hungry tonight.
You don't run away at the sight of me,
Even though I want to eat you alive.

I crawl all over the ground,
In the middle of the night,
Darkness and prey are both abound
And I'm hungry tonight.
