Hear the hounds bark, gallop of steed, shouts fill the air, shelter in need
Betrayed by the dawn, abandoned by night, silence disturbed, hurried flight
Scatter the leaves, wind in your hair, eyes darting left, what's over there
No time to stop, no time to breathe, bound to the right, dance through the trees
Confused again, the heart of men. Pursued again, the hart of ten
Branches whip past, scratches the skin, run for your life, fear settles in
Chill in the breeze, wet from the dew, mud flying high, pace set anew
Crash through the brush, splash of a stream, eyes catch a glance, gone as a dream
Ravens take wing, omens they cry, shafts to the bow, letting them fly
Blood strikes the ground, ask not why, curse of man, hear her sigh
Free of the trap, hurt but alive, frenzied they lash, bees from a hive
Win at all cost, all that they know, lives intertwined, quarry and foe
Sure of the kill, gave up the guard, hole in the net, push through it hard
Shouts of contempt, lost is the prey, won't be the last, surrender the day
Confused again, the heart of men. Pursued again, the hart of ten
Abused again, the heart of men. Pursued again, the hart of ten
