lyrics

SHE TAKES PRIDE IN LETTING ME FALL…
AND I COULD NOT SURVIVE IN THE END
AND IF I KNEW THE CONSEQUENCE, AND ALL THAT STEMS FROM IGNORANCE
WHY WOULD I GO THROUGH IT AGAIN…?

I AM THE HUNTER WHO WAS SET IN MY WAY
I AM THE HUNTER BUT I FELL TO DISMAY
LOST THE SCENT; WANDERED ASTRAY
TOOK-AIM; MISFIRED; AND NOW I PAY
WOUNDED BY MY OWN RICOCHET
I AM THE HUNTER WHO WAS SET IN MY WAY
I AM THE HUNTER BUT I FELL TO DISMAY

GET-UP BEFORE DAWN PUT THE CAMOFLAUGE ON
GRAB MY WEAPON AND I’M STEPPIN OUT THE DOOR
I’M GONE..
INTO THE WILDERNESS, INTO THE WILD
CREEP THROUGH THE MUD N IT’S ALL DEFILED
STYLE IS MILD… SO I BLEND ON IN
SINCE BACK THEN- TRAINED AND WHEN
I KEPT TO THE STEPS THAT MY FATHER SAID
SILENT I CREPT – AND I STAYED WELL FED
AIM WAS SET INSIDE MY HEAD
GAME WAS HIT – I SHOT IT BLED
AIM WAS SET INSIDE MY HEAD
GAME WAS HIT I SHOT IT BLED

STEADY… AT EASE
ON THE TRAIL LOW AT MY KNEES
READY AND WISE
THIS I KNEW
ALL MY THOUGHTS WERE CLEAR
TIL I MET YOU

BEAUTIFUL SHE…WANDERED IN MY SIGHTS
FOCUS OF ALL MY SLEEPLESS NIGHTS
SET A TRAP FOR HER
BUT IT WAS SET FOR ME
MY ATTACK WAS HEARD
FROM MOVING DEPERATELY
SLEEP DEPRIVATION; SETTING IN
I SAW MY REFLECTION – GETTING THIN
DULLING THE SHARPNESS OF MY SKILL
BUT THE TIME WENT BY AND THERE WAS STILL NO KILL
GOING HUNGRY – THEN I LOST MY WAY
AFRAID AND WEAK – AND I BECAME THE PREY

WHILE TRYIN TO TRACK THIS BLACK ILLUSION
FURTHER INTO SECLUSION
FELT SO SURE ABOUT THIS- OUR FUSION
BUT IT WAS JUST CONFUSION…
FELT SO SURE ABOUT THIS OUR FUSION...
BUT IT WAS JUST CONFUSION.
