Predators and Prey

I was a tiger
A hunter
I was on the prowl
You werent a lion
Nor fighter
You were a simple owl
I should have ate you when i saw you
I stalked you down from behind
I would have gotten you good
This only happens in a blue moon
But i let you go just cause i could
Predators and prey only survive
In the deep jungles where vines thrive
But he took me to the sea
Took me to the water
Where i could be
A little wilder
Then he left me there
There to drown
Now im the prey
Helplessly bound
I was a woman
A fighter
Just trying to get by
He was a man
A romantic
Twined up in disguise
I ran when i saw him but then i stopped
Why did he turn around?
He should have let me go
My heart went crazy then it dropped
How was i suppose to know
He'd be my greatest foe?
Predators and prey only survive
In the deep jungle where vines thrive
But he took me to the sea
Took me to the water
Where i could be
A little wilder
Then he left me there
There to drown
Now im the prey
Helplessly bound
I have to swim back to the shore
Climb aboard
Smile big
Dance with the crickets and hear them sing
Get back up dont look back
Try to recover from this attack
I am a girl
So smart
I will not cry
I'll just sit here
And wait out life's next surprise
