The Hunt

The Hunt

A Poem by

lyrics

"
Your love captured me,
Shot me down from the sky.
The hunter terrorizing
The poor bird flying by.

But even my instinct
Couldn't see through;
See through the charm,
See through you.

I should see it coming now,
I should have seen it then.
I should have seen your rifle,
Cocked, aimed, and open.

Your love gave me a heartache,
But finally showed me the truth.
The truth that I'll never again be,
With someone like you.

I should see it coming now,
I should have seen it then.
I should have seen your rifle,
Cocked, aimed, and open.

But this game is over now.
Put down that gun.
You've shot me one too many times,
That's it, I'm done.

Done with your s**t and lies,
And your excuses too.
Done with lying to myself
And letting us just anew.

I should see it coming now,
I should have seen it then.
I should have seen your rifle,
Cocked, aimed, and open.
