Song Lyrics

"The Huntress"

by The Echoing Green
Album: In Scarlet

You're in my headlights
With nowhere to run
And I'm the huntress
And I'm getting my gun
I've got your eyes wide
This is so much fun
And we've just begun

And when we dance
I'm bringing hell in a dress
And with a glance
I'll leave your heart in a mess
With every word I've got a lie to confess
Your eyes are so committal
This might hurt a little

Chorus:
You take take take take the worst of me
And just make make make it seem like hell in the way
You break break the best of me and
Just shake shake shake the rest of heaven away
This thing that we've become
Might seem like love to some
All the lies you've fed to me
They leave me standing empty
With nothing to say

And like a cross
You give the weary a rest
And like a vampire
I take it right in the chest
And every chance
I'm putting grace to the test
And I feel so numb

It's such a tragedy
This violent love affair with vanity
Every stupid promise is a fallacy
I'll make you settle for less
And your end has come

(Chorus)
