The hunter has come to take you away from me
The hunter is here to take you back
And the anger clouds, bring the rain crashing down
But I think that it's time, for me to fight back
So I think about the times, when we were happy
You think about them too, or do you see black
When you think about the ways the ways that I loved you
The ways all turned to dead end streets and we're not going back
Back to the start, back to Ohio
Out of the city, before it came crumbling down
But what can I do, except guide us down slowly
So we don't crash and hit the ground
The hunter is here, he's where he's always been
He's milling around, he's in the back
And he took me by surprise, no I never saw the whites of his eyes
But now that I do, is it too late to fight back
So I think about the days, the days I was sweet to you
Or did you always feel under attack
When you think about the ways, the ways that I needed you
I think about them too, and know that we're not going back
Back to the start, back to Ohio
Out of the city, before it came crumbling down
But what can I do, except guide us down slowly
So we don't crash and hit the ground
One day at a time, everything is at stake
How long can you bear? how long can you wait
The hunter comes again, she runs away from him
Bad sun rise again, no surprise again
I thought that I could, I thought that I could, but I can barely save myself
I thought that I could, I thought that I could, I thought I could be someone else
