# Foxes Are Predators

*I used to think about the monsters underneath my bed*\
*Hiding in the darkness, now they're stuck inside my head*\
*Why does everything I write feel like a call for help?*\
*Reaching out and seeing that no one knows how to tell*

*I've become the predator*\
*The arrow on your hearts*\
*Flailing wildly, spewing toxins*\
*That's the hardest part*\
*I'm no hunter, I don't bite, I think you might agree*\
*Lately I've been seeing there's a deeper side of me*

*Used to think about the many friendships I had held*\
*Keeping people close, wondering if they kept me as well*\
*Why does my destructive cycle keep on catching me?*\
*Pushing them away and watching how they distance me*

*I've become the predator*\
*The arrow on your hearts*\
*Flailing wildly, spewing toxins*\
*That's the hardest part*\
*I'm no hunter, I don't bite, I think you might agree*\
*Lately I've been seeing there's a deeper side of me*

*Lately I've been seeing there's a deeper side of me*\
*Come on, see me closer, and I think you might agree*\
*Look into my spiraling and thinking well of me*\
*Promise that I'll hurt you, but don't misunderstand me*

*I don't want to be villainous or toxic at my core*\
*I really wish that I could just stop hurting anymore*\
*I don't know how to fix this, but I'm trying all my tricks*\
*I cannot keep on hurting people, 'cus it makes me sick*

*I need you to believe me because sometimes I can't see it*\
*So please look a little closer and I promise I will be a bit*\
*More kind and empathetic and the person that you wanna be*\
*Friends with, and maybe partners, maybe that's a little private see*\
*I can't tell if I'm spiraling right now my thoughts keep flowing*\
*And I don't know if you ever will quite know just what I'm knowing*\
*Yeah, so let me finish writing and I'll get back to conspiring*\
*How I'll be a better predator for you*
