Of Hunter And Deer

Xordeal


More than a thousand times I played it in my mind 
The game of hunter and deer 
I followed your track, my senses were sharp 
To satisfy my desire to kill 

But when I trapped you and you couldn't run away 
Somehow I felt pity for you 

I turn away and question myself 
A conflict of instinct and mind 
Which is the right way to choose? 
Does reason protect or harm myself? 

I wipe my doubts away, the hunt starts over again 
I follow your track, my senses are sharp 
To satisfy my desire to kill 

Once more I trap you and you can't run away 
Now there's no pity I could feel 

I tear your flesh and you scream in fear and knowledge of death 
There's no escape for you as your blood falls on the ground 
I made my way through my doubts, the dominance of reason is gone 
I follow my instinct, it's the rule of nature I can't ignore
