Bird of Prey Lyrics

You plucked me from the vine
A clean detachment
Although it wasn't time
I let it happen
You, you don't leave me no choice
You, you don't leave me no choice
You, you don't leave me no choice
But to run away
You are a bird of prey
With a heart like the night
I had all the room to hide
Deep fields and tall grasses
Your sight it will not tire
Until you have me
I love you, oh but no
You will not let me go
Now the sun it sets I'm on the run
I can't get you away from me
You, you don't leave me no choice
You, you don't leave me no choice
You, you don't leave me no choice
But to run away
You are a bird of prey
With a heart like the night
I never said I didn't want you knocking on my door
All this run and chase
It's almost like I planned it
Never have I felt arms this tight on me before

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
