'The Hunted' by Time to Leave, taken from the EP 'Mythics'.
lyrics
They put a price on a young man’s head
We’ve watched him grow and grow
They put a price on the young man’s head
We’re getting so old
Smarter boys, wiser men; they think he’s the same as me
But they don’t see everything I see
He’s dead, more or less
Soon this pursuit will take its toll
Cut-throat cultures forget honesty
Kill anyone my eyesight holds
Such a hollow chest
This heartless void provides no pulse
These vacant lungs can barely breathe
Realize the truth: you’re on your own
It will come in time
But you will learn to fight again when hell comes your way
Despite all that I’ve done wrong
They’ll see a better part of me again that only a patient man can
Through the eyes of a tyrant
With the heart of a lion
We’ll set apart our differences
And in time
We’ll lift a glass and decide...
...to forgo things that defined our need to act as fools
Sing me back to sleep
I don’t want to stay with him
At night you light my way
Why do they detain
The lover that defended you?
At night you light my way
Did your heart skip a beat when our eyes met?
Frozen in time like you’ve just been shot by a now smoking gun
Oh my God
Young Man
For you there is not long left to live
Tonight
Tonight
