The most toxic-attraction stalker song out there. It makes so much more sense as a metal song. It just has that energy to it.

[@she6496]

Very true, but I have to say Chase Holfelder's rendition of "every breath you take" is pretty amazing, too

BioZero216 watch the music video,it was so disturbing that it got taken off of vevo for a while.

[@doritosMSP]

alphakillson Music videos don't always show the real meaning. The actual meaning is that they won't let go of the person they love. A lot of the song is actually about sex, "eat you alive" is about eating the girl out..

i prefer this to the original version a whole lot. your voice is not irritating at all, and the song works far better with rock than with that whole commercial pop tune thing.

*LYRICS*
Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animal-als
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals
Animals
Like animal-als
Baby I'm
So what you trying to do to me
It's like we can't stop, we're enemies
But we get along when I'm inside you, eh
You're like a drug that's killing me
I cut you out entirely
But 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, oh
Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals
Animals
Like animal-als
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
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, oh
Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animal-als
Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals

Like animal-als
Baby I'm
Don't tell no lie, lie lie lie
You can't deny, ny ny ny
The beast inside, side side side
Yeah yeah yeah
No girl don't lie, lie lie lie (No girl don't lie)
You can't deny, ny ny ny (You can't deny)
