Lyrics The Dear Hunter

The Dear Hunter

What It Means To Be Alone

Oh,

You were born with the sun

And oh,

You will die with the moon

And everything you thought you had you lost

But now you'd never lose what you don't have

Prayers from above

Never answered quite enough

Now the only one you have is you

With this (cruel?) bitter heart

You were (gone and it hurt?)

Left her naked in the sun

(I'm scared?) from this (cruel?) bitter world

This has only begun

As the bombs are bursting off

Smoke arose

On azimuth glares

Bodies brewed

In frigid winter air

Where family's sons

Are robbed beneath their feet

And hearts conceit

(Above her?)The angel sings

(Distracted?) our eyes to the sea

And we thought that we had

A cause for suffering

And reason enough to die alone

Oh but,

You,

Will this (cruel?) bitter heart

You were (gone and in love?)

Left her naked in the sun

(I'm scared?) from this (cruel?) bitter world

This has only begun

As the bombs are bursting off

With our feet beneath us

With our hands to the sky

We extend our limbs

Begging "Why, oh why?"

Don't fade away

Prayers from above

Never answered quite enough

Looking up

Never offered you too much

Now the only one you have is
