lyrics

Predator
Knew the danger ‘fore you took aim
Wager pleasure on your pain

Of all the times to hit your marks
Ruts of sharpened scorn smoothed to dull blame

The predator and unwilling prey
I guess it’s your grace to give away

I’d tell you you missed me but that’s your intent
Targeted stunt show how close you could get
Headlights and steel and a roar of contempt
Our blessings were carved from our innocence
Honor your lapse with my gratitude
More of the same comes to you

Feared your tracks were a crooked frame
Despite your lucky miss, you’d never be the same

You left the scene to remember you by
Now I’m inclined to do the same

I’d tell you you missed me but that’s your intent
Targeted stunt show how close you could get
Headlights and steel and a roar of contempt
Our blessings were carved from our innocence

How hard it was to
To be naïve too
What you already knew
More risk makes a better game
Made your gamble
You knew you could play and I’ll stay
Right here at home

The predator and unwilling prey
I guess it’s your grace to give away

I’d could thank you for the lesson learned
Or light my own flame and let you feel the burn

I’d tell you you missed me but that’s your intent
Targeted stunt show how close you could get
Headlights and steel and a roar of contempt
Our blessings were carved from our innocence

How hard it was to
To be naïve too
What you already knew
More risk makes a better game
Made your gamble
You knew you could play and I’ll stay
Right here at home

about

Steven Kattenbraker Washington

Part Eliott Smith, part L. Cohen, as run through the production wringer of Daniel Ash…Kattenbraker’s baritone voice is pleasant and soothing. The guitar work sweet and mellow and, might I add, deftly played… Portland’s Music Liberation Project
