Eat You Alive

by The Oh Hellos

on Through the Deep, Dark Valley (2012)

He said to me, child, I'm afraid for your soul,
These things you are after can not be controlled.
And this beast that you are after will eat you alive,
And spit out your bones.

She'll string you along, and she'll tell you a lie.
There is nothing but pain on the edge of a knife.
There is no courage in flirting with fear.
So brother come alive.

I've seen the true face in the things you call life.
The song of the siren that holds your desire.
Yes, she is cunning and clever as hell,
And she'll eat you alive.

(She'll eat you alive)
