Lyrics The Neighbourhood

The Neighbourhood

Prey

As long as you notice

I'm hoping that you'll keep your heart open

I'll keep mine open too

If you don't ask, I won't tell

Just know that, just know that

It all hurts, it all hurts just the same

Something is wrong, I can't explain

Everything changed when the birds came

You'll never know what they might do if they catch you too early

We need to fly ourselves before someone else tells us how

Something is off, I feel like prey, I feel like praying

As long as you notice

I'm hoping that you'll keep your heart open

I'll keep mine open too

So, so, I'll probably take you aside

And tell you what's on my mind

But you, you'll just keep it inside

Probably tell me that you're alright

Something is wrong, I can't explain

Everything changed when the birds came

You'll never know what they might do if they catch you too early

We need to fly ourselves before someone else tells us how

Something is off, I feel like prey, I feel like praying

(If I run) If I run away I'll never know

(What you want) And if you go then I’ll never grow

(I'm undone) Let me slip, let me slide

(If you run) I'll be sure to let you fly

Something is off, I can't explain

You know what I mean, don't you?

Something I saw, or something I did made me like this

Could you help me?

We need to fly ourselves before someone else tells us how

Something is off, I feel like prey, I feel like praying

Something is off, I feel like prey, I feel like praying

So, so, I'll probably take you aside

And tell you what's on my mind

But you, you'll just keep it inside

Probably tell me that you're alright

So, so, I'll probably take you aside

And tell you what's on my mind

But you, you'll just keep it inside

Probably tell me that you're alright

I don't want to fight

I don't want to fight

I don't want to fight

I don't want to fight
