The Hunter Lyrics

You came in like a storm:
ravenous,
thunderous.
When you grabbed me
by the throat
I just fell
under your spell.

The chant was deafening,
and the air
heavily scented with desire.
And I renounced my name,
gave it all away
and stepped into the fire
for a lie.

Breaking,
I'm breaking
your curse.
Your reign ends here,
I will not stumble.
Breaking,
I'm breaking
cuz I know
if you were here
my walls would crumble.

You're a master of disguise,
devious,
treacherous.
All you crave for is a prize
to behold
and call your own.

I'm gathering my strength,
and my eyes
are slowly adjusting to the dark.
There are no secrets left,
I can finally see
who you truly are,
what you are.

Breaking,
I'm breaking
your curse.
Your reign ends here,
I will not stumble.
Breaking,
I'm breaking
cuz I know
if you were here
my walls would crumble.

I don't blame you
but my loneliness...
I believed everything you said,
every word and every lie.
It's a tale as old as time.
Over and over we played your game,
you were the hunter and I your prey.
It's the chase, it keeps you alive...
It's a tale as old as time.

Breaking,
I'm breaking
your curse.
Your reign ends here,
I will not stumble.
Breaking,
I'm breaking
cuz I know
if you were here
my walls would crumble.
