Waterdeep - Hunting the Tender Heart Lyrics

He threw down his pride

cause it didn't serve his ego

They say he took the pain out of his chest

cause he couldn't feel it anymore



He was really lonely

and he needed to be believed.

He had no one he could cry with,

and he needed to be received.



CHORUS

Bitterness is the enemy he ignores is hunting him

Forgivness is an ocean he's forgetting how to swim

The jackal stalks the coastline seeking someone to devour

One who's almost given up when the bell tolls midnight hour



He's grown to hate to feel so vulnerable.

He's started spurning feeling pain

But somehow he is starving

for the fall of honest rain.



he's made a shell around his mouth

he can't drink through anymore

So he curses water-dwellers

while he's standing on the shore,

wishing he could go in.
