Running in the deep forest
Inner animal but also honest
Instinct keeps it on the move
This time no need to prove
It's so tempting to be free
Feeling that you have a spree
You've been hunted down for a while
They have tried to erase your smile
You kept going out for more
But this time had hit you to the core
You learned how those people work
That they don't feel at all
You also found this side of self
The hunger, the ego, the depth
They say a hunter is made from its prey
I'm sick and tired to be in that play
This endless circle full of flaw
I was always following the law
Playing mostly by the rules
Every time beaten in the blues
I don't want to be the pray
I don't want to be a hunter only to play
Every time my road is crossed
Somehow I end up being worse
Still, my instinct keeps on
I'm still not dissuaded but I'm moving on
It's always painful and I lose
This time I got further from the loose
Got in a river in the forest deep
Had my mind completely strict
But the essence of my heart still slipped
On a road inside this plain of trees
Leaves are rustling heavily in the wind
A storm is brewing and it's not thin
Darkness is approaching faster than ever
Frightening, but also urging forever
Myself for a change and be most cruel
To stop caring and commence a duel
I wish to keep myself in light
But it hurts so much and this awakes
My heart, which aches and bleeds to be
Healed again from my own mischief
If only I could be a bit heartless
Try and be the best actress
My heart, this ache - I know, behave
We always got each other to blame
My mind, don't worry we will be fine
We always support each other on our side
We know that we could always set us free
But why again should we try for a spree?
Because a hunter is nothing without their prey
You should have known better before entering the game
