Lyrics
Hit the target
and made your mark
Under camoflauge
Hidden in the dark
Mount me on
the hood of your car
Tell me why do I
have to suffer for your art?
Now I’m preserved
In this unnatural state
Captured forever
Wearing this expressionless face
While all the rest
just went to waste
So I could showcase
your terrible taste
Hanging in this place
You couldn’t take me with your bare hands
One on one, animal to man
because in a fair fight you wouldn’t stand a chance
Left modelled in a formidable pose
Now just an amusing anecdote
A battle more fierce than the one fate wrote
A different ending than the one we know
Collect your trophy, because I’m your prize
A reminder of what it’s like to be alive
With glass eyes and cotton insides
Took the fall, became your sacrifice
When I was only trying to survive
Seems maybe you were the first of us to die
On the run, animal from man
but our species will evolve faster than yours can
Collect your trophy, because I’m your prize
A reminder of what it’s like to be alive
With glass eyes and cotton insides
Took the fall, became your sacrifice
When I was only trying to survive
Seems maybe you were the first of us to die x2
Maybe you were the first of us to die x2
You were the first of us to die x3
You were the first
