Up here on this tightrope
Tryin' not to fall
The spotlight is on me tonight
I wanna have it all
Feelin' stronger
I'm a wild beast in my prime
I need to feed my appetite
I've got to make you mine
And you can't fight this obsession
It's a dam that's bound to break
I was born with this aggression
There is no escape
'Cause I'm ready to strike
Cocked and loaded tonight
I'm ready to strike
I've got you in my sight
I'm ready
I've got these primal instincts
These animal desires
And I know that you know the kind of
Urges you inspire
It's a hunger
I'm a raging carnivore
As soon as I devour you
I'm ravenous for more
And I'll give you private lessons
On survival in the wild
Leave some permanent impression
Make a woman of a child
And I'm ready to strike
Cocked and loaded tonight
I'm ready to strike
I've got you in my sight
I'm wild, I'm an animal
I need to feed my appetite
I'm waiting and ready to strike
I'm ready to strike
Cocked and loaded tonight
I'm ready to strike
Cocked and loaded tonight
Ready, ready, ready
Ready to strike
Ready, ready, ready
Ready to strike
