Tunnel Vision (Demo) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I make them panic
It's satanic how I bend my body
Yeah, you can look but you can't touch

I'm not just anybody
Caught in the haze and hypnotized
And you're too thirsty
Open your view and you will find, stop searching

[Pre-Chorus]
Eyes on the prize
Thought the cherry would be better than the pie
You like that, like that, that, like that
That's your demise
Yeah, you hold me like you're rushing to my thighs
Too fast, too fast, fast, too fast

[Chorus]
But your focus is empty
Tunnel vision under me
Honeysuckle and fresh meat
But I'm more than that, more than that
Playing house to distract me
Boy, you'rе no good at acting
Obvious what you're after

And I'm more than that, morе than that
And I'm more than that, more than that
[Verse 2]
They always hustle for the pussy
So they'll never get it
I make them tumble down the hill
They climbed, I don't regret it

I saw the trick fall out your sleeve
And I'm so certain
You hold me 'til I don't believe
And it ain't working


[Pre-Chorus]
Eyes on the prize
Thought the cherry would be better than the pie
You like that, like that, that, like that
That's your demise
Yeah, you hold me like you're rushing to my thighs
Too fast, too fast, fast, too fast

[Chorus]
But your focus is empty
Tunnel vision under me
Honeysuckle and fresh meat
But I'm more than that, more than that
Playing house to distract me
Boy, you're no good at acting
Obvious what you're after

And I'm more than that, more than that
And I'm more than that, more than that

[Outro]
Crossing my heart, I'd rather die (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Than be the needle in your eye (Oh-oh-oh-oh)

Show me how far obsession goes (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Could've been more, now we'll never know
