Hunter


Hunter I see the shame

In your heart and in your face

One day you’ll figure out

What it’s all about Up in the clouds

Fate can cut your hours

Unstitch your days and kill the cowards

 

You see this life isn’t meant for me

This life isn’t meant to be

Don’t want to be a part of your story

 

Hunter I hope you know

One day you’ll go a mirror ghost

Fate will cut your insanity

Hold the scissors to your humanity

The needle holds your life

Choked on a rock cuts like a knife

 

You see this life isn’t meant for me

This life isn’t meant to be

Don’t want to be a part of your story

 

Hunter I see your pain

I see the guilt in your strain

I see liquid fill your lungs

As you take the drugs give it a shrug

A shadow of a person left to find one’s direction

 

You see this life isn’t meant for me

This life isn’t meant to be

Don’t want to be a part of your story
